3 | 171, 3825 |
3 | 57, 1275 |
19, 425 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 19 x 425 = 72675
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/72675
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6518/171,1374/3825 is 2/72675
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 171,3825 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,3825) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,3825) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(171,3825) = ( 171 × 3825 ) / 9
LCM(171,3825) = 654075 / 9
LCM(171,3825) = 72675
