Lets's calculate LCM of 813,711
3 | 813, 711 |
271, 237 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 271 x 237 = 192681
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/192681
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 542/813,9126/711 is 2/192681
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 813,711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(813,711) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(813,711) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(813,711) = ( 813 × 711 ) / 3
LCM(813,711) = 578043 / 3
LCM(813,711) = 192681
