Lets's calculate LCM of 126,426
2 | 126, 426 |
3 | 63, 213 |
21, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 21 x 71 = 8946
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/8946
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 325/126,949/426 is 13/8946
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 126,426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(126,426) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(126,426) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(126,426) = ( 126 × 426 ) / 6
LCM(126,426) = 53676 / 6
LCM(126,426) = 8946
