11 | 847, 561 |
77, 51 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 77 x 51 = 43197
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/43197
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 402/847,5469/561 is 3/43197
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 847,561 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(847,561) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(847,561) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(847,561) = ( 847 × 561 ) / 11
LCM(847,561) = 475167 / 11
LCM(847,561) = 43197
