Lets's calculate LCM of 471,4867
157 | 471, 4867 |
3, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 157 x 3 x 31 = 14601
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14601
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6432/471,6871/4867 is 1/14601
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 471,4867 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(471,4867) = 157
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(471,4867) x common factors =157 x 1 = 157
LCM(471,4867) = ( 471 × 4867 ) / 157
LCM(471,4867) = 2292357 / 157
LCM(471,4867) = 14601
