Lets's calculate LCM of 153,693
3 | 153, 693 |
3 | 51, 231 |
17, 77 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 17 x 77 = 11781
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11781
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4549/153,1491/693 is 1/11781
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 153,693 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(153,693) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(153,693) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(153,693) = ( 153 × 693 ) / 9
LCM(153,693) = 106029 / 9
LCM(153,693) = 11781
