Lets's calculate LCM of 559,2838
43 | 559, 2838 |
13, 66 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 43 x 13 x 66 = 36894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/36894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1581/559,4545/2838 is 3/36894
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 559,2838 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(559,2838) = 43
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(559,2838) x common factors =43 x 1 = 43
LCM(559,2838) = ( 559 × 2838 ) / 43
LCM(559,2838) = 1586442 / 43
LCM(559,2838) = 36894
