Lets's calculate LCM of 344,7980
2 | 344, 7980 |
2 | 172, 3990 |
86, 1995 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 86 x 1995 = 686280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/686280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7983/344,9483/7980 is 3/686280
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 344,7980 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(344,7980) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(344,7980) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(344,7980) = ( 344 × 7980 ) / 4
LCM(344,7980) = 2745120 / 4
LCM(344,7980) = 686280
