Lets's calculate LCM of 159,9351
3 | 159, 9351 |
53, 3117 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 53 x 3117 = 495603
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/495603
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4641/159,1771/9351 is 7/495603
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 159,9351 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,9351) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,9351) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(159,9351) = ( 159 × 9351 ) / 3
LCM(159,9351) = 1486809 / 3
LCM(159,9351) = 495603
