Lets's calculate LCM of 942,711
3 | 942, 711 |
314, 237 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 314 x 237 = 223254
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/223254
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4391/942,1785/711 is 1/223254
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 942,711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(942,711) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(942,711) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(942,711) = ( 942 × 711 ) / 3
LCM(942,711) = 669762 / 3
LCM(942,711) = 223254
