So the greatest common factor 2951,5124 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 489,657
3 | 489, 657 |
163, 219 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 163 x 219 = 107091
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/107091
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2951/489,5124/657 is 1/107091
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 489,657 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(489,657) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(489,657) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(489,657) = ( 489 × 657 ) / 3
LCM(489,657) = 321273 / 3
LCM(489,657) = 107091
