Lets's calculate LCM of 785,9775
5 | 785, 9775 |
157, 1955 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 157 x 1955 = 1534675
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1534675
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 293/785,7272/9775 is 1/1534675
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 785,9775 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(785,9775) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(785,9775) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(785,9775) = ( 785 × 9775 ) / 5
LCM(785,9775) = 7673375 / 5
LCM(785,9775) = 1534675
