Lets's calculate LCM of 715,905
5 | 715, 905 |
143, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 143 x 181 = 129415
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/129415
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8517/715,8524/905 is 1/129415
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 715,905 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(715,905) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(715,905) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(715,905) = ( 715 × 905 ) / 5
LCM(715,905) = 647075 / 5
LCM(715,905) = 129415
