Lets's calculate LCM of 600,3321
3 | 600, 3321 |
200, 1107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 200 x 1107 = 664200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/664200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1976/600,9540/3321 is 4/664200
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 600,3321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(600,3321) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(600,3321) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(600,3321) = ( 600 × 3321 ) / 3
LCM(600,3321) = 1992600 / 3
LCM(600,3321) = 664200
