Lets's calculate LCM of 871,299
13 | 871, 299 |
67, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 67 x 23 = 20033
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/20033
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5679/871,4254/299 is 3/20033
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 871,299 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(871,299) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(871,299) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(871,299) = ( 871 × 299 ) / 13
LCM(871,299) = 260429 / 13
LCM(871,299) = 20033
