Lets's calculate LCM of 420,5643
3 | 420, 5643 |
140, 1881 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 140 x 1881 = 790020
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 148/790020
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3404/420,4884/5643 is 148/790020
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 420,5643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,5643) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,5643) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(420,5643) = ( 420 × 5643 ) / 3
LCM(420,5643) = 2370060 / 3
LCM(420,5643) = 790020
