So the greatest common factor 194,768 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 175,535
5 | 175, 535 |
35, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 35 x 107 = 18725
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/18725
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 194/175,768/535 is 2/18725
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 175,535 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(175,535) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(175,535) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(175,535) = ( 175 × 535 ) / 5
LCM(175,535) = 93625 / 5
LCM(175,535) = 18725
