Lets's calculate LCM of 423,2724
3 | 423, 2724 |
141, 908 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 141 x 908 = 384084
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/384084
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4159/423,3591/2724 is 1/384084
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 423,2724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(423,2724) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(423,2724) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(423,2724) = ( 423 × 2724 ) / 3
LCM(423,2724) = 1152252 / 3
LCM(423,2724) = 384084
