Lets's calculate LCM of 759,1689
3 | 759, 1689 |
253, 563 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 253 x 563 = 427317
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/427317
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3303/759,3642/1689 is 3/427317
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 759,1689 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(759,1689) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(759,1689) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(759,1689) = ( 759 × 1689 ) / 3
LCM(759,1689) = 1281951 / 3
LCM(759,1689) = 427317
