Lets's calculate LCM of 14,6657
7 | 14, 6657 |
2, 951 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 2 x 951 = 13314
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13314
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 187/14,490/6657 is 1/13314
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 14,6657 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,6657) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,6657) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(14,6657) = ( 14 × 6657 ) / 7
LCM(14,6657) = 93198 / 7
LCM(14,6657) = 13314
