Lets's calculate LCM of 295,302
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 89090
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/89090
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 868/295,580/302 is 4/89090
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 295,302 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(295,302) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(295,302) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(295,302) = ( 295 × 302 ) / 1
LCM(295,302) = 89090 / 1
LCM(295,302) = 89090
