Lets's calculate LCM of 201,848
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 170448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/170448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 819/201,2976/848 is 3/170448
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 201,848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,848) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,848) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(201,848) = ( 201 × 848 ) / 1
LCM(201,848) = 170448 / 1
LCM(201,848) = 170448
