Lets's calculate LCM of 126,474
2 | 126, 474 |
3 | 63, 237 |
21, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 21 x 79 = 9954
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9954
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 789/126,320/474 is 1/9954
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 126,474 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(126,474) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(126,474) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(126,474) = ( 126 × 474 ) / 6
LCM(126,474) = 59724 / 6
LCM(126,474) = 9954
