Lets's calculate LCM of 213,1569
3 | 213, 1569 |
71, 523 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 71 x 523 = 111399
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/111399
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4788/213,5172/1569 is 12/111399
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 213,1569 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(213,1569) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(213,1569) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(213,1569) = ( 213 × 1569 ) / 3
LCM(213,1569) = 334197 / 3
LCM(213,1569) = 111399
