Lets's calculate LCM of 477,1143
3 | 477, 1143 |
3 | 159, 381 |
53, 127 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 53 x 127 = 60579
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/60579
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9609/477,4761/1143 is 3/60579
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 477,1143 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(477,1143) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(477,1143) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(477,1143) = ( 477 × 1143 ) / 9
LCM(477,1143) = 545211 / 9
LCM(477,1143) = 60579
