So the greatest common factor 8109,1998 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 474,4661
79 | 474, 4661 |
6, 59 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 79 x 6 x 59 = 27966
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/27966
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8109/474,1998/4661 is 9/27966
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 474,4661 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(474,4661) = 79
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(474,4661) x common factors =79 x 1 = 79
LCM(474,4661) = ( 474 × 4661 ) / 79
LCM(474,4661) = 2209314 / 79
LCM(474,4661) = 27966
