Lets's calculate LCM of 652,6966
2 | 652, 6966 |
326, 3483 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 326 x 3483 = 2270916
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2270916
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3155/652,2995/6966 is 5/2270916
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 652,6966 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(652,6966) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(652,6966) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(652,6966) = ( 652 × 6966 ) / 2
LCM(652,6966) = 4541832 / 2
LCM(652,6966) = 2270916
