Lets's calculate LCM of 414,5997
3 | 414, 5997 |
138, 1999 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 138 x 1999 = 827586
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/827586
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2721/414,7331/5997 is 1/827586
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 414,5997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(414,5997) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(414,5997) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(414,5997) = ( 414 × 5997 ) / 3
LCM(414,5997) = 2482758 / 3
LCM(414,5997) = 827586
