Lets's calculate LCM of 471,8631
3 | 471, 8631 |
157, 2877 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 157 x 2877 = 1355067
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/1355067
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4045/471,9990/8631 is 5/1355067
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 471,8631 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(471,8631) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(471,8631) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(471,8631) = ( 471 × 8631 ) / 3
LCM(471,8631) = 4065201 / 3
LCM(471,8631) = 1355067
