Lets's calculate LCM of 927,3129
3 | 927, 3129 |
309, 1043 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 309 x 1043 = 966861
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/966861
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5172/927,3102/3129 is 6/966861
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 927,3129 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(927,3129) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(927,3129) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(927,3129) = ( 927 × 3129 ) / 3
LCM(927,3129) = 2900583 / 3
LCM(927,3129) = 966861
