Lets's calculate LCM of 174,7923
3 | 174, 7923 |
58, 2641 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 58 x 2641 = 459534
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/459534
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5840/174,1890/7923 is 10/459534
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 174,7923 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(174,7923) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(174,7923) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(174,7923) = ( 174 × 7923 ) / 3
LCM(174,7923) = 1378602 / 3
LCM(174,7923) = 459534
