3 | 273, 828 |
91, 276 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 91 x 276 = 75348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/75348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 176/273,886/828 is 2/75348
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 273,828 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(273,828) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(273,828) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(273,828) = ( 273 × 828 ) / 3
LCM(273,828) = 226044 / 3
LCM(273,828) = 75348
