So the greatest common factor 7848,6012 is 36.
Lets's calculate LCM of 558,2643
3 | 558, 2643 |
186, 881 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 186 x 881 = 491598
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/491598
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7848/558,6012/2643 is 36/491598
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 558,2643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(558,2643) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(558,2643) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(558,2643) = ( 558 × 2643 ) / 3
LCM(558,2643) = 1474794 / 3
LCM(558,2643) = 491598
