Lets's calculate LCM of 985,8945
5 | 985, 8945 |
197, 1789 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 197 x 1789 = 1762165
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1762165
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 380/985,8973/8945 is 1/1762165
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 985,8945 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(985,8945) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(985,8945) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(985,8945) = ( 985 × 8945 ) / 5
LCM(985,8945) = 8810825 / 5
LCM(985,8945) = 1762165
