Lets's calculate LCM of 231,2121
3 | 231, 2121 |
7 | 77, 707 |
11, 101 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 11 x 101 = 23331
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23331
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8441/231,2171/2121 is 1/23331
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 231,2121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,2121) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,2121) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(231,2121) = ( 231 × 2121 ) / 21
LCM(231,2121) = 489951 / 21
LCM(231,2121) = 23331
