Lets's calculate LCM of 531,747
3 | 531, 747 |
3 | 177, 249 |
59, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 59 x 83 = 44073
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/44073
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7994/531,9931/747 is 1/44073
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 531,747 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(531,747) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(531,747) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(531,747) = ( 531 × 747 ) / 9
LCM(531,747) = 396657 / 9
LCM(531,747) = 44073
