Lets's calculate LCM of 987,4473
3 | 987, 4473 |
7 | 329, 1491 |
47, 213 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 47 x 213 = 210231
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/210231
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4643/987,7032/4473 is 1/210231
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 987,4473 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(987,4473) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(987,4473) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(987,4473) = ( 987 × 4473 ) / 21
LCM(987,4473) = 4414851 / 21
LCM(987,4473) = 210231
