Lets's calculate LCM of 525,864
3 | 525, 864 |
175, 288 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 175 x 288 = 151200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 479/151200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 479/525,958/864 is 479/151200
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 525,864 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(525,864) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(525,864) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(525,864) = ( 525 × 864 ) / 3
LCM(525,864) = 453600 / 3
LCM(525,864) = 151200
