Lets's calculate LCM of 621,2478
3 | 621, 2478 |
207, 826 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 207 x 826 = 512946
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/512946
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1215/621,6821/2478 is 1/512946
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 621,2478 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(621,2478) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(621,2478) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(621,2478) = ( 621 × 2478 ) / 3
LCM(621,2478) = 1538838 / 3
LCM(621,2478) = 512946
