Lets's calculate LCM of 282,159
3 | 282, 159 |
94, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 94 x 53 = 14946
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14946
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 423/282,9395/159 is 1/14946
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 282,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(282,159) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(282,159) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(282,159) = ( 282 × 159 ) / 3
LCM(282,159) = 44838 / 3
LCM(282,159) = 14946
