Lets's calculate LCM of 957,4510
11 | 957, 4510 |
87, 410 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 87 x 410 = 392370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/392370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5241/957,8523/4510 is 3/392370
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 957,4510 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(957,4510) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(957,4510) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(957,4510) = ( 957 × 4510 ) / 11
LCM(957,4510) = 4316070 / 11
LCM(957,4510) = 392370
