3 | 579, 9042 |
193, 3014 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 193 x 3014 = 1745106
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1745106
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1604/579,4519/9042 is 1/1745106
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 579,9042 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(579,9042) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(579,9042) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(579,9042) = ( 579 × 9042 ) / 3
LCM(579,9042) = 5235318 / 3
LCM(579,9042) = 1745106
