So the greatest common factor 3372,9531 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 411,840
3 | 411, 840 |
137, 280 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 137 x 280 = 115080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/115080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3372/411,9531/840 is 3/115080
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 411,840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(411,840) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(411,840) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(411,840) = ( 411 × 840 ) / 3
LCM(411,840) = 345240 / 3
LCM(411,840) = 115080
