3 | 261, 4497 |
87, 1499 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 87 x 1499 = 391239
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/391239
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7329/261,2929/4497 is 1/391239
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 261,4497 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(261,4497) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(261,4497) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(261,4497) = ( 261 × 4497 ) / 3
LCM(261,4497) = 1173717 / 3
LCM(261,4497) = 391239
