2 | 858, 954 |
3 | 429, 477 |
143, 159 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 143 x 159 = 136422
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/136422
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6437/858,8078/954 is 1/136422
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 858,954 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(858,954) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(858,954) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(858,954) = ( 858 × 954 ) / 6
LCM(858,954) = 818532 / 6
LCM(858,954) = 136422
