Lets's calculate LCM of 806,217
31 | 806, 217 |
26, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 31 x 26 x 7 = 5642
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5642
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4251/806,6735/217 is 3/5642
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 806,217 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(806,217) = 31
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(806,217) x common factors =31 x 1 = 31
LCM(806,217) = ( 806 × 217 ) / 31
LCM(806,217) = 174902 / 31
LCM(806,217) = 5642
