Lets's calculate LCM of 855,216
3 | 855, 216 |
3 | 285, 72 |
95, 24 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 95 x 24 = 20520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/20520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5660/855,6038/216 is 2/20520
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 855,216 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(855,216) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(855,216) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(855,216) = ( 855 × 216 ) / 9
LCM(855,216) = 184680 / 9
LCM(855,216) = 20520
