So the greatest common factor 4869,3066 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 222,981
3 | 222, 981 |
74, 327 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 74 x 327 = 72594
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/72594
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4869/222,3066/981 is 3/72594
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 222,981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(222,981) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(222,981) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(222,981) = ( 222 × 981 ) / 3
LCM(222,981) = 217782 / 3
LCM(222,981) = 72594
