Lets's calculate LCM of 645,3549
3 | 645, 3549 |
215, 1183 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 215 x 1183 = 763035
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/763035
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3318/645,1308/3549 is 6/763035
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 645,3549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(645,3549) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(645,3549) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(645,3549) = ( 645 × 3549 ) / 3
LCM(645,3549) = 2289105 / 3
LCM(645,3549) = 763035
