3 | 177, 9987 |
59, 3329 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 59 x 3329 = 589233
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/589233
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1251/177,9258/9987 is 3/589233
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 177,9987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(177,9987) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(177,9987) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(177,9987) = ( 177 × 9987 ) / 3
LCM(177,9987) = 1767699 / 3
LCM(177,9987) = 589233
