So the greatest common factor 7259,5704 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 537,561
3 | 537, 561 |
179, 187 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 179 x 187 = 100419
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/100419
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7259/537,5704/561 is 1/100419
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 537,561 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(537,561) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(537,561) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(537,561) = ( 537 × 561 ) / 3
LCM(537,561) = 301257 / 3
LCM(537,561) = 100419
