So the greatest common factor 260,1794 is 26.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,195
3 | 60, 195 |
5 | 20, 65 |
4, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 4 x 13 = 780
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 26/780
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 260/60,1794/195 is 26/780
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 60,195 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,195) = 15
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(60,195) x common factors =15 x 1 = 15
LCM(60,195) = ( 60 × 195 ) / 15
LCM(60,195) = 11700 / 15
LCM(60,195) = 780
