Lets's calculate LCM of 123,1800
3 | 123, 1800 |
41, 600 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 41 x 600 = 73800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/73800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3137/123,7491/1800 is 1/73800
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 123,1800 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(123,1800) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(123,1800) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(123,1800) = ( 123 × 1800 ) / 3
LCM(123,1800) = 221400 / 3
LCM(123,1800) = 73800
