Lets's calculate LCM of 471,7791
3 | 471, 7791 |
157, 2597 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 157 x 2597 = 1223187
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1223187
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7845/471,2376/7791 is 3/1223187
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 471,7791 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(471,7791) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(471,7791) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(471,7791) = ( 471 × 7791 ) / 3
LCM(471,7791) = 3669561 / 3
LCM(471,7791) = 1223187
