Lets's calculate LCM of 678,165
3 | 678, 165 |
226, 55 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 226 x 55 = 37290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/37290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 698/678,164/165 is 2/37290
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 678,165 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(678,165) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(678,165) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(678,165) = ( 678 × 165 ) / 3
LCM(678,165) = 111870 / 3
LCM(678,165) = 37290
