Lets's calculate LCM of 310,518
2 | 310, 518 |
155, 259 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 155 x 259 = 80290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/80290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9990/310,5655/518 is 15/80290
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 310,518 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(310,518) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(310,518) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(310,518) = ( 310 × 518 ) / 2
LCM(310,518) = 160580 / 2
LCM(310,518) = 80290
