So the greatest common factor 2895,4850 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 431,871
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 375401
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/375401
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2895/431,4850/871 is 5/375401
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 431,871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,871) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,871) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,871) = ( 431 × 871 ) / 1
LCM(431,871) = 375401 / 1
LCM(431,871) = 375401
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
