Lets's calculate LCM of 369,6741
3 | 369, 6741 |
3 | 123, 2247 |
41, 749 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 41 x 749 = 276381
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/276381
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9856/369,3487/6741 is 11/276381
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 369,6741 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(369,6741) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(369,6741) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(369,6741) = ( 369 × 6741 ) / 9
LCM(369,6741) = 2487429 / 9
LCM(369,6741) = 276381
