Lets's calculate LCM of 108,7359
3 | 108, 7359 |
36, 2453 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 36 x 2453 = 264924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/264924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4038/108,4012/7359 is 2/264924
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 108,7359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(108,7359) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(108,7359) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(108,7359) = ( 108 × 7359 ) / 3
LCM(108,7359) = 794772 / 3
LCM(108,7359) = 264924
