223 | 669, 9143 |
3, 41 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 223 x 3 x 41 = 27429
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/27429
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 15/669,4521/9143 is 3/27429
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 669,9143 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(669,9143) = 223
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(669,9143) x common factors =223 x 1 = 223
LCM(669,9143) = ( 669 × 9143 ) / 223
LCM(669,9143) = 6116667 / 223
LCM(669,9143) = 27429
