Lets's calculate LCM of 543,1302
3 | 543, 1302 |
181, 434 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 181 x 434 = 235662
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/235662
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5253/543,8870/1302 is 1/235662
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 543,1302 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(543,1302) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(543,1302) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(543,1302) = ( 543 × 1302 ) / 3
LCM(543,1302) = 706986 / 3
LCM(543,1302) = 235662
