So the greatest common factor 4531,9316 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 255,942
3 | 255, 942 |
85, 314 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 85 x 314 = 80070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/80070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4531/255,9316/942 is 1/80070
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 255,942 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,942) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,942) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(255,942) = ( 255 × 942 ) / 3
LCM(255,942) = 240210 / 3
LCM(255,942) = 80070
