So the greatest common factor 2820,2241 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 561,1992
3 | 561, 1992 |
187, 664 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 187 x 664 = 372504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/372504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2820/561,2241/1992 is 3/372504
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 561,1992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(561,1992) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(561,1992) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(561,1992) = ( 561 × 1992 ) / 3
LCM(561,1992) = 1117512 / 3
LCM(561,1992) = 372504
