Lets's calculate LCM of 717,4647
3 | 717, 4647 |
239, 1549 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 239 x 1549 = 1110633
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1110633
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 408/717,3207/4647 is 3/1110633
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 717,4647 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(717,4647) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(717,4647) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(717,4647) = ( 717 × 4647 ) / 3
LCM(717,4647) = 3331899 / 3
LCM(717,4647) = 1110633
