Lets's calculate LCM of 162,2439
3 | 162, 2439 |
3 | 54, 813 |
18, 271 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 18 x 271 = 43902
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/43902
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7983/162,1569/2439 is 3/43902
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 162,2439 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(162,2439) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(162,2439) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(162,2439) = ( 162 × 2439 ) / 9
LCM(162,2439) = 395118 / 9
LCM(162,2439) = 43902
