Lets's calculate LCM of 897,4668
3 | 897, 4668 |
299, 1556 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 299 x 1556 = 1395732
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1395732
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1344/897,7599/4668 is 3/1395732
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 897,4668 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,4668) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,4668) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(897,4668) = ( 897 × 4668 ) / 3
LCM(897,4668) = 4187196 / 3
LCM(897,4668) = 1395732
