So the greatest common factor 407,1109 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 414,159
3 | 414, 159 |
138, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 138 x 53 = 21942
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21942
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 407/414,1109/159 is 1/21942
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 414,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(414,159) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(414,159) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(414,159) = ( 414 × 159 ) / 3
LCM(414,159) = 65826 / 3
LCM(414,159) = 21942
