Lets's calculate LCM of 786,1443
3 | 786, 1443 |
262, 481 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 262 x 481 = 378066
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/378066
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8661/786,6688/1443 is 1/378066
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 786,1443 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(786,1443) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(786,1443) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(786,1443) = ( 786 × 1443 ) / 3
LCM(786,1443) = 1134198 / 3
LCM(786,1443) = 378066
