Lets's calculate LCM of 555,429
3 | 555, 429 |
185, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 185 x 143 = 79365
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/79365
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4648/555,7880/429 is 8/79365
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 555,429 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(555,429) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(555,429) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(555,429) = ( 555 × 429 ) / 3
LCM(555,429) = 238095 / 3
LCM(555,429) = 79365
