Lets's calculate LCM of 205,955
5 | 205, 955 |
41, 191 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 41 x 191 = 39155
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/39155
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 867/205,3534/955 is 3/39155
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 205,955 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(205,955) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(205,955) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(205,955) = ( 205 × 955 ) / 5
LCM(205,955) = 195775 / 5
LCM(205,955) = 39155
