Lets's calculate LCM of 699,918
3 | 699, 918 |
233, 306 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 233 x 306 = 213894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/213894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7203/699,2359/918 is 7/213894
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 699,918 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(699,918) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(699,918) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(699,918) = ( 699 × 918 ) / 3
LCM(699,918) = 641682 / 3
LCM(699,918) = 213894
