Lets's calculate LCM of 990,1620
2 | 990, 1620 |
3 | 495, 810 |
3 | 165, 270 |
5 | 55, 90 |
11, 18 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 11 x 18 = 17820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/17820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4227/990,7122/1620 is 3/17820
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 990,1620 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(990,1620) = 90
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(990,1620) x common factors =90 x 1 = 90
LCM(990,1620) = ( 990 × 1620 ) / 90
LCM(990,1620) = 1603800 / 90
LCM(990,1620) = 17820
