Lets's calculate LCM of 465,897
3 | 465, 897 |
155, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 155 x 299 = 139035
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/139035
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 731/465,5574/897 is 1/139035
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 465,897 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(465,897) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(465,897) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(465,897) = ( 465 × 897 ) / 3
LCM(465,897) = 417105 / 3
LCM(465,897) = 139035
