Lets's calculate LCM of 168,5493
3 | 168, 5493 |
56, 1831 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 56 x 1831 = 307608
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/307608
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7413/168,4218/5493 is 3/307608
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 168,5493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(168,5493) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(168,5493) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(168,5493) = ( 168 × 5493 ) / 3
LCM(168,5493) = 922824 / 3
LCM(168,5493) = 307608
