3 | 879, 5673 |
293, 1891 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 293 x 1891 = 1662189
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1662189
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1047/879,3056/5673 is 1/1662189
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 879,5673 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,5673) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,5673) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(879,5673) = ( 879 × 5673 ) / 3
LCM(879,5673) = 4986567 / 3
LCM(879,5673) = 1662189
