Lets's calculate LCM of 267,687
3 | 267, 687 |
89, 229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 89 x 229 = 61143
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/61143
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7918/267,4506/687 is 2/61143
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 267,687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(267,687) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(267,687) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(267,687) = ( 267 × 687 ) / 3
LCM(267,687) = 183429 / 3
LCM(267,687) = 61143
