Lets's calculate LCM of 321,1371
3 | 321, 1371 |
107, 457 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 107 x 457 = 146697
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/146697
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1691/321,2958/1371 is 1/146697
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 321,1371 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(321,1371) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(321,1371) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(321,1371) = ( 321 × 1371 ) / 3
LCM(321,1371) = 440091 / 3
LCM(321,1371) = 146697
