Lets's calculate LCM of 340,950
2 | 340, 950 |
5 | 170, 475 |
34, 95 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 34 x 95 = 32300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/32300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8605/340,5961/950 is 1/32300
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 340,950 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(340,950) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(340,950) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(340,950) = ( 340 × 950 ) / 10
LCM(340,950) = 323000 / 10
LCM(340,950) = 32300
