Lets's calculate LCM of 675,897
3 | 675, 897 |
225, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 225 x 299 = 201825
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/201825
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 674/675,540/897 is 2/201825
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 675,897 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(675,897) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(675,897) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(675,897) = ( 675 × 897 ) / 3
LCM(675,897) = 605475 / 3
LCM(675,897) = 201825
