Lets's calculate LCM of 816,3111
3 | 816, 3111 |
17 | 272, 1037 |
16, 61 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 17 x 16 x 61 = 49776
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/49776
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3623/816,2242/3111 is 1/49776
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 816,3111 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(816,3111) = 51
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(816,3111) x common factors =51 x 1 = 51
LCM(816,3111) = ( 816 × 3111 ) / 51
LCM(816,3111) = 2538576 / 51
LCM(816,3111) = 49776
