Lets's calculate LCM of 411,3564
3 | 411, 3564 |
137, 1188 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 137 x 1188 = 488268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/488268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3568/411,2660/3564 is 4/488268
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 411,3564 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(411,3564) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(411,3564) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(411,3564) = ( 411 × 3564 ) / 3
LCM(411,3564) = 1464804 / 3
LCM(411,3564) = 488268
