Lets's calculate LCM of 755,440
5 | 755, 440 |
151, 88 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 151 x 88 = 66440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/66440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4503/755,3857/440 is 19/66440
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 755,440 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(755,440) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(755,440) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(755,440) = ( 755 × 440 ) / 5
LCM(755,440) = 332200 / 5
LCM(755,440) = 66440
