So the greatest common factor 3723,5352 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 204,5205
3 | 204, 5205 |
68, 1735 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 68 x 1735 = 353940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/353940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3723/204,5352/5205 is 3/353940
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 204,5205 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(204,5205) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(204,5205) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(204,5205) = ( 204 × 5205 ) / 3
LCM(204,5205) = 1061820 / 3
LCM(204,5205) = 353940
