Lets's calculate LCM of 185,975
5 | 185, 975 |
37, 195 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 37 x 195 = 36075
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 318/36075
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 954/185,636/975 is 318/36075
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 185,975 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(185,975) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(185,975) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(185,975) = ( 185 × 975 ) / 5
LCM(185,975) = 180375 / 5
LCM(185,975) = 36075
