Lets's calculate LCM of 534,6801
3 | 534, 6801 |
178, 2267 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 178 x 2267 = 1210578
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1210578
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5529/534,3162/6801 is 3/1210578
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 534,6801 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(534,6801) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(534,6801) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(534,6801) = ( 534 × 6801 ) / 3
LCM(534,6801) = 3631734 / 3
LCM(534,6801) = 1210578
