Lets's calculate LCM of 383,291
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 111453
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/111453
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5160/383,5875/291 is 5/111453
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 383,291 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(383,291) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(383,291) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(383,291) = ( 383 × 291 ) / 1
LCM(383,291) = 111453 / 1
LCM(383,291) = 111453
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
