So the greatest common factor 275,946 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,132
3 | 27, 132 |
9, 44 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 9 x 44 = 1188
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/1188
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 275/27,946/132 is 11/1188
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 27,132 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,132) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(27,132) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(27,132) = ( 27 × 132 ) / 3
LCM(27,132) = 3564 / 3
LCM(27,132) = 1188
