Lets's calculate LCM of 282,585
3 | 282, 585 |
94, 195 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 94 x 195 = 54990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 187/54990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 748/282,3927/585 is 187/54990
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 282,585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(282,585) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(282,585) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(282,585) = ( 282 × 585 ) / 3
LCM(282,585) = 164970 / 3
LCM(282,585) = 54990
