Lets's calculate LCM of 558,3120
2 | 558, 3120 |
3 | 279, 1560 |
93, 520 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 93 x 520 = 290160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/290160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9859/558,1579/3120 is 1/290160
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 558,3120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(558,3120) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(558,3120) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(558,3120) = ( 558 × 3120 ) / 6
LCM(558,3120) = 1740960 / 6
LCM(558,3120) = 290160
