Lets's calculate LCM of 371,5677
7 | 371, 5677 |
53, 811 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 53 x 811 = 300881
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/300881
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8557/371,1569/5677 is 1/300881
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 371,5677 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(371,5677) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(371,5677) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(371,5677) = ( 371 × 5677 ) / 7
LCM(371,5677) = 2106167 / 7
LCM(371,5677) = 300881
