Lets's calculate LCM of 138,1275
3 | 138, 1275 |
46, 425 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 46 x 425 = 58650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/58650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7517/138,2546/1275 is 1/58650
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 138,1275 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(138,1275) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(138,1275) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(138,1275) = ( 138 × 1275 ) / 3
LCM(138,1275) = 175950 / 3
LCM(138,1275) = 58650
