3 | 936, 6387 |
312, 2129 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 312 x 2129 = 1992744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1992744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3049/936,2162/6387 is 1/1992744
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 936,6387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(936,6387) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(936,6387) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(936,6387) = ( 936 × 6387 ) / 3
LCM(936,6387) = 5978232 / 3
LCM(936,6387) = 1992744
