Lets's calculate LCM of 505,565
5 | 505, 565 |
101, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 101 x 113 = 57065
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/57065
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5940/505,9746/565 is 22/57065
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 505,565 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(505,565) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(505,565) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(505,565) = ( 505 × 565 ) / 5
LCM(505,565) = 285325 / 5
LCM(505,565) = 57065
