So the greatest common factor 889,422 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 363,126
3 | 363, 126 |
121, 42 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 121 x 42 = 15246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 889/363,422/126 is 1/15246
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 363,126 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(363,126) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(363,126) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(363,126) = ( 363 × 126 ) / 3
LCM(363,126) = 45738 / 3
LCM(363,126) = 15246
