Lets's calculate LCM of 5255,8111
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42623305
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/42623305
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 505/5255,315/8111 is 5/42623305
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 5255,8111 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(5255,8111) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(5255,8111) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(5255,8111) = ( 5255 × 8111 ) / 1
LCM(5255,8111) = 42623305 / 1
LCM(5255,8111) = 42623305
