Lets's calculate LCM of 600,678
2 | 600, 678 |
3 | 300, 339 |
100, 113 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 100 x 113 = 67800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8531/600,5984/678 is 1/67800
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 600,678 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(600,678) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(600,678) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(600,678) = ( 600 × 678 ) / 6
LCM(600,678) = 406800 / 6
LCM(600,678) = 67800
