Lets's calculate LCM of 798,330
2 | 798, 330 |
3 | 399, 165 |
133, 55 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 133 x 55 = 43890
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/43890
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5871/798,1276/330 is 1/43890
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 798,330 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(798,330) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(798,330) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(798,330) = ( 798 × 330 ) / 6
LCM(798,330) = 263340 / 6
LCM(798,330) = 43890
