291, 2623 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 291 x 2623 = 2289879
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2289879
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8853/873,3693/7869 is 3/2289879
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 873,7869 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(873,7869) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(873,7869) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(873,7869) = ( 873 × 7869 ) / 3
LCM(873,7869) = 6869637 / 3
LCM(873,7869) = 2289879
