So the greatest common factor 3471,6880 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 219,234
3 | 219, 234 |
73, 78 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 73 x 78 = 17082
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17082
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3471/219,6880/234 is 1/17082
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 219,234 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(219,234) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(219,234) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(219,234) = ( 219 × 234 ) / 3
LCM(219,234) = 51246 / 3
LCM(219,234) = 17082
