3 | 558, 2871 |
3 | 186, 957 |
62, 319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 62 x 319 = 178002
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178002
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1129/558,3796/2871 is 1/178002
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 558,2871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(558,2871) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(558,2871) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(558,2871) = ( 558 × 2871 ) / 9
LCM(558,2871) = 1602018 / 9
LCM(558,2871) = 178002
