Lets's calculate LCM of 375,8178
3 | 375, 8178 |
125, 2726 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 125 x 2726 = 1022250
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1022250
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4717/375,8442/8178 is 1/1022250
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 375,8178 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(375,8178) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(375,8178) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(375,8178) = ( 375 × 8178 ) / 3
LCM(375,8178) = 3066750 / 3
LCM(375,8178) = 1022250
