Lets's calculate LCM of 666,387
3 | 666, 387 |
3 | 222, 129 |
74, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 74 x 43 = 28638
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28638
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 871/666,146/387 is 1/28638
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 666,387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(666,387) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(666,387) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(666,387) = ( 666 × 387 ) / 9
LCM(666,387) = 257742 / 9
LCM(666,387) = 28638
