Lets's calculate LCM of 300,417
3 | 300, 417 |
100, 139 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 100 x 139 = 41700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/41700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 397/300,6592/417 is 1/41700
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 300,417 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(300,417) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(300,417) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(300,417) = ( 300 × 417 ) / 3
LCM(300,417) = 125100 / 3
LCM(300,417) = 41700
