So the greatest common factor 710,178 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 243,129
3 | 243, 129 |
81, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 81 x 43 = 10449
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/10449
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 710/243,178/129 is 2/10449
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 243,129 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(243,129) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(243,129) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(243,129) = ( 243 × 129 ) / 3
LCM(243,129) = 31347 / 3
LCM(243,129) = 10449
