Lets's calculate LCM of 141,1977
3 | 141, 1977 |
47, 659 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 47 x 659 = 92919
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/92919
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1784/141,7518/1977 is 2/92919
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 141,1977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(141,1977) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(141,1977) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(141,1977) = ( 141 × 1977 ) / 3
LCM(141,1977) = 278757 / 3
LCM(141,1977) = 92919
