Lets's calculate LCM of 465,345
3 | 465, 345 |
5 | 155, 115 |
31, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 31 x 23 = 10695
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10695
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2304/465,5614/345 is 2/10695
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 465,345 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(465,345) = 15
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(465,345) x common factors =15 x 1 = 15
LCM(465,345) = ( 465 × 345 ) / 15
LCM(465,345) = 160425 / 15
LCM(465,345) = 10695
