So the greatest common factor 7293,7551 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 993,924
3 | 993, 924 |
331, 308 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 331 x 308 = 305844
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/305844
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7293/993,7551/924 is 3/305844
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 993,924 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(993,924) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(993,924) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(993,924) = ( 993 × 924 ) / 3
LCM(993,924) = 917532 / 3
LCM(993,924) = 305844
