Lets's calculate LCM of 951,666
3 | 951, 666 |
317, 222 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 317 x 222 = 211122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/211122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4040/951,8494/666 is 2/211122
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 951,666 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(951,666) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(951,666) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(951,666) = ( 951 × 666 ) / 3
LCM(951,666) = 633366 / 3
LCM(951,666) = 211122
