Lets's calculate LCM of 405,123
3 | 405, 123 |
135, 41 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 135 x 41 = 16605
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/16605
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5116/405,4594/123 is 2/16605
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 405,123 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(405,123) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(405,123) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(405,123) = ( 405 × 123 ) / 3
LCM(405,123) = 49815 / 3
LCM(405,123) = 16605
