Lets's calculate LCM of 117,456
3 | 117, 456 |
39, 152 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 39 x 152 = 17784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 920/117,117/456 is 1/17784
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 117,456 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(117,456) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(117,456) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(117,456) = ( 117 × 456 ) / 3
LCM(117,456) = 53352 / 3
LCM(117,456) = 17784
