Lets's calculate LCM of 24,321
3 | 24, 321 |
8, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 8 x 107 = 2568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 45/2568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3645/24,5490/321 is 45/2568
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 24,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,321) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,321) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(24,321) = ( 24 × 321 ) / 3
LCM(24,321) = 7704 / 3
LCM(24,321) = 2568
