Lets's calculate LCM of 171,1158
3 | 171, 1158 |
57, 386 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 57 x 386 = 66006
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/66006
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1137/171,3122/1158 is 1/66006
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 171,1158 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,1158) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,1158) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(171,1158) = ( 171 × 1158 ) / 3
LCM(171,1158) = 198018 / 3
LCM(171,1158) = 66006
