Lets's calculate LCM of 175,515
5 | 175, 515 |
35, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 35 x 103 = 18025
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/18025
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2180/175,5356/515 is 4/18025
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 175,515 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(175,515) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(175,515) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(175,515) = ( 175 × 515 ) / 5
LCM(175,515) = 90125 / 5
LCM(175,515) = 18025
