Lets's calculate LCM of 455,303
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 137865
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/137865
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5726/455,7497/303 is 7/137865
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 455,303 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(455,303) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(455,303) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(455,303) = ( 455 × 303 ) / 1
LCM(455,303) = 137865 / 1
LCM(455,303) = 137865
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
