Lets's calculate LCM of 879,9735
3 | 879, 9735 |
293, 3245 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 293 x 3245 = 2852355
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2852355
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2059/879,5275/9735 is 1/2852355
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 879,9735 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,9735) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,9735) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(879,9735) = ( 879 × 9735 ) / 3
LCM(879,9735) = 8557065 / 3
LCM(879,9735) = 2852355
