Lets's calculate LCM of 915,972
3 | 915, 972 |
305, 324 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 305 x 324 = 296460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/296460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1675/915,6462/972 is 1/296460
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 915,972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(915,972) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(915,972) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(915,972) = ( 915 × 972 ) / 3
LCM(915,972) = 889380 / 3
LCM(915,972) = 296460
