So the greatest common factor 963,879 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 273,416
13 | 273, 416 |
21, 32 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 21 x 32 = 8736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/8736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 963/273,879/416 is 3/8736
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 273,416 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(273,416) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(273,416) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(273,416) = ( 273 × 416 ) / 13
LCM(273,416) = 113568 / 13
LCM(273,416) = 8736
