Lets's calculate LCM of 315,1497
3 | 315, 1497 |
105, 499 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 105 x 499 = 157185
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/157185
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5028/315,7176/1497 is 12/157185
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 315,1497 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(315,1497) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(315,1497) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(315,1497) = ( 315 × 1497 ) / 3
LCM(315,1497) = 471555 / 3
LCM(315,1497) = 157185
