Lets's calculate LCM of 234,7983
3 | 234, 7983 |
3 | 78, 2661 |
26, 887 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 26 x 887 = 207558
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/207558
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3032/234,3316/7983 is 4/207558
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 234,7983 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(234,7983) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(234,7983) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(234,7983) = ( 234 × 7983 ) / 9
LCM(234,7983) = 1868022 / 9
LCM(234,7983) = 207558
