Lets's calculate LCM of 135,9687
3 | 135, 9687 |
45, 3229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 45 x 3229 = 435915
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/435915
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5512/135,3981/9687 is 1/435915
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 135,9687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(135,9687) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(135,9687) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(135,9687) = ( 135 × 9687 ) / 3
LCM(135,9687) = 1307745 / 3
LCM(135,9687) = 435915
