Lets's calculate LCM of 284,505
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 143420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/143420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5687/284,7612/505 is 11/143420
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 284,505 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,505) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,505) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(284,505) = ( 284 × 505 ) / 1
LCM(284,505) = 143420 / 1
LCM(284,505) = 143420
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
