Lets's calculate LCM of 153,225
3 | 153, 225 |
3 | 51, 75 |
17, 25 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 17 x 25 = 3825
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/3825
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 800/153,8592/225 is 16/3825
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 153,225 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(153,225) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(153,225) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(153,225) = ( 153 × 225 ) / 9
LCM(153,225) = 34425 / 9
LCM(153,225) = 3825
