3 | 459, 9849 |
153, 3283 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 153 x 3283 = 1506897
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/1506897
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2849/459,2562/9849 is 7/1506897
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 459,9849 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(459,9849) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(459,9849) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(459,9849) = ( 459 × 9849 ) / 3
LCM(459,9849) = 4520691 / 3
LCM(459,9849) = 1506897
