Lets's calculate LCM of 942,777
3 | 942, 777 |
314, 259 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 314 x 259 = 243978
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/243978
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 913/942,1159/777 is 1/243978
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 942,777 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(942,777) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(942,777) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(942,777) = ( 942 × 777 ) / 3
LCM(942,777) = 731934 / 3
LCM(942,777) = 243978
