Lets's calculate LCM of 847,3017
7 | 847, 3017 |
121, 431 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 121 x 431 = 365057
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/365057
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7918/847,4374/3017 is 2/365057
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 847,3017 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(847,3017) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(847,3017) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(847,3017) = ( 847 × 3017 ) / 7
LCM(847,3017) = 2555399 / 7
LCM(847,3017) = 365057
