Lets's calculate LCM of 153,3540
3 | 153, 3540 |
51, 1180 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 51 x 1180 = 180540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/180540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2814/153,8178/3540 is 6/180540
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 153,3540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(153,3540) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(153,3540) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(153,3540) = ( 153 × 3540 ) / 3
LCM(153,3540) = 541620 / 3
LCM(153,3540) = 180540
