Lets's calculate LCM of 678,5085
3 | 678, 5085 |
113 | 226, 1695 |
2, 15 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 113 x 2 x 15 = 10170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8518/678,5036/5085 is 2/10170
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 678,5085 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(678,5085) = 339
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(678,5085) x common factors =339 x 1 = 339
LCM(678,5085) = ( 678 × 5085 ) / 339
LCM(678,5085) = 3447630 / 339
LCM(678,5085) = 10170
