3 | 903, 5316 |
301, 1772 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 301 x 1772 = 1600116
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1600116
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8787/903,3655/5316 is 1/1600116
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 903,5316 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(903,5316) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(903,5316) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(903,5316) = ( 903 × 5316 ) / 3
LCM(903,5316) = 4800348 / 3
LCM(903,5316) = 1600116
