Lets's calculate LCM of 435,403
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 175305
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/175305
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5736/435,9370/403 is 2/175305
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 435,403 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(435,403) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(435,403) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(435,403) = ( 435 × 403 ) / 1
LCM(435,403) = 175305 / 1
LCM(435,403) = 175305
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
