Lets's calculate LCM of 483,7131
3 | 483, 7131 |
161, 2377 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 161 x 2377 = 1148091
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 81/1148091
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3645/483,3969/7131 is 81/1148091
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 483,7131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(483,7131) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(483,7131) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(483,7131) = ( 483 × 7131 ) / 3
LCM(483,7131) = 3444273 / 3
LCM(483,7131) = 1148091
