So the greatest common factor 3553,5425 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,477
3 | 42, 477 |
14, 159 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 14 x 159 = 6678
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6678
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3553/42,5425/477 is 1/6678
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 42,477 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,477) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,477) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(42,477) = ( 42 × 477 ) / 3
LCM(42,477) = 20034 / 3
LCM(42,477) = 6678
