Lets's calculate LCM of 355,9995
5 | 355, 9995 |
71, 1999 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 71 x 1999 = 709645
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/709645
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8872/355,4311/9995 is 1/709645
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 355,9995 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(355,9995) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(355,9995) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(355,9995) = ( 355 × 9995 ) / 5
LCM(355,9995) = 3548225 / 5
LCM(355,9995) = 709645
