So the greatest common factor 2202,2421 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 585,669
3 | 585, 669 |
195, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 195 x 223 = 130455
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/130455
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2202/585,2421/669 is 3/130455
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 585,669 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(585,669) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(585,669) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(585,669) = ( 585 × 669 ) / 3
LCM(585,669) = 391365 / 3
LCM(585,669) = 130455
