Lets's calculate LCM of 180,526
2 | 180, 526 |
90, 263 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 90 x 263 = 47340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/47340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8655/180,8160/526 is 15/47340
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 180,526 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(180,526) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(180,526) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(180,526) = ( 180 × 526 ) / 2
LCM(180,526) = 94680 / 2
LCM(180,526) = 47340
