So the greatest common factor 495,550 is 55.
Lets's calculate LCM of 243,867
3 | 243, 867 |
81, 289 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 81 x 289 = 70227
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 55/70227
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 495/243,550/867 is 55/70227
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 243,867 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(243,867) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(243,867) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(243,867) = ( 243 × 867 ) / 3
LCM(243,867) = 210681 / 3
LCM(243,867) = 70227
