Lets's calculate LCM of 357,6468
3 | 357, 6468 |
7 | 119, 2156 |
17, 308 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 17 x 308 = 109956
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/109956
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3221/357,5640/6468 is 1/109956
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 357,6468 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,6468) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,6468) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(357,6468) = ( 357 × 6468 ) / 21
LCM(357,6468) = 2309076 / 21
LCM(357,6468) = 109956
