Lets's calculate LCM of 789,9231
3 | 789, 9231 |
263, 3077 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 263 x 3077 = 2427753
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/2427753
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5330/789,5960/9231 is 10/2427753
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 789,9231 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(789,9231) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(789,9231) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(789,9231) = ( 789 × 9231 ) / 3
LCM(789,9231) = 7283259 / 3
LCM(789,9231) = 2427753
