Lets's calculate LCM of 837,4089
3 | 837, 4089 |
279, 1363 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 279 x 1363 = 1140831
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1140831
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6858/837,4631/4089 is 1/1140831
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 837,4089 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,4089) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,4089) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(837,4089) = ( 837 × 4089 ) / 3
LCM(837,4089) = 3422493 / 3
LCM(837,4089) = 1140831
