Lets's calculate LCM of 429,1728
3 | 429, 1728 |
143, 576 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 143 x 576 = 247104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/247104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 10/429,6875/1728 is 5/247104
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 429,1728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(429,1728) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(429,1728) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(429,1728) = ( 429 × 1728 ) / 3
LCM(429,1728) = 741312 / 3
LCM(429,1728) = 247104
