So the greatest common factor 5511,9555 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 234,7290
2 | 234, 7290 |
3 | 117, 3645 |
3 | 39, 1215 |
13, 405 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 13 x 405 = 94770
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/94770
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5511/234,9555/7290 is 3/94770
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 234,7290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(234,7290) = 18
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(234,7290) x common factors =18 x 1 = 18
LCM(234,7290) = ( 234 × 7290 ) / 18
LCM(234,7290) = 1705860 / 18
LCM(234,7290) = 94770
