Lets's calculate LCM of 207,549
3 | 207, 549 |
3 | 69, 183 |
23, 61 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 23 x 61 = 12627
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12627
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7782/207,8731/549 is 1/12627
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 207,549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(207,549) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(207,549) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(207,549) = ( 207 × 549 ) / 9
LCM(207,549) = 113643 / 9
LCM(207,549) = 12627
