Lets's calculate LCM of 147,8268
3 | 147, 8268 |
49, 2756 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 49 x 2756 = 405132
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/405132
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7284/147,9721/8268 is 1/405132
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 147,8268 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(147,8268) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(147,8268) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(147,8268) = ( 147 × 8268 ) / 3
LCM(147,8268) = 1215396 / 3
LCM(147,8268) = 405132
