17 | 187, 170 |
11, 10 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 11 x 10 = 1870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/1870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 469/187,7798/170 is 7/1870
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 187,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(187,170) = 17
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(187,170) x common factors =17 x 1 = 17
LCM(187,170) = ( 187 × 170 ) / 17
LCM(187,170) = 31790 / 17
LCM(187,170) = 1870
