Lets's calculate LCM of 579,3486
3 | 579, 3486 |
193, 1162 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 193 x 1162 = 672798
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/672798
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7917/579,1165/3486 is 1/672798
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 579,3486 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(579,3486) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(579,3486) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(579,3486) = ( 579 × 3486 ) / 3
LCM(579,3486) = 2018394 / 3
LCM(579,3486) = 672798
