3 | 879, 3516 |
293 | 293, 1172 |
1, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 293 x 1 x 4 = 3516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6898/879,5477/3516 is 1/3516
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 879,3516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,3516) = 879
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,3516) x common factors =879 x 1 = 879
LCM(879,3516) = ( 879 × 3516 ) / 879
LCM(879,3516) = 3090564 / 879
LCM(879,3516) = 3516
