Lets's calculate LCM of 131,4847
131 | 131, 4847 |
1, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 131 x 1 x 37 = 4847
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4847
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3219/131,1617/4847 is 3/4847
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 131,4847 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,4847) = 131
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,4847) x common factors =131 x 1 = 131
LCM(131,4847) = ( 131 × 4847 ) / 131
LCM(131,4847) = 634957 / 131
LCM(131,4847) = 4847
