Lets's calculate LCM of 447,2421
3 | 447, 2421 |
149, 807 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 149 x 807 = 360729
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/360729
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6399/447,8307/2421 is 9/360729
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 447,2421 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(447,2421) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(447,2421) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(447,2421) = ( 447 × 2421 ) / 3
LCM(447,2421) = 1082187 / 3
LCM(447,2421) = 360729
