Lets's calculate LCM of 567,189
3 | 567, 189 |
3 | 189, 63 |
3 | 21, 63 |
7 | 7, 21 |
1, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 3 x 7 x 1 x 3 = 567
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/567
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 471/567,4187/189 is 1/567
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 567,189 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(567,189) = 189
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(567,189) x common factors =189 x 1 = 189
LCM(567,189) = ( 567 × 189 ) / 189
LCM(567,189) = 107163 / 189
LCM(567,189) = 567
