Lets's calculate LCM of 189,4035
3 | 189, 4035 |
63, 1345 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 63 x 1345 = 254205
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/254205
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1642/189,6221/4035 is 1/254205
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 189,4035 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(189,4035) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(189,4035) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(189,4035) = ( 189 × 4035 ) / 3
LCM(189,4035) = 762615 / 3
LCM(189,4035) = 254205
