So the greatest common factor 626,6534 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,255
3 | 21, 255 |
7, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 85 = 1785
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1785
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 626/21,6534/255 is 2/1785
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 21,255 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,255) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,255) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(21,255) = ( 21 × 255 ) / 3
LCM(21,255) = 5355 / 3
LCM(21,255) = 1785
