Lets's calculate LCM of 264,5967
3 | 264, 5967 |
88, 1989 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 88 x 1989 = 525096
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/525096
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3754/264,4516/5967 is 2/525096
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 264,5967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,5967) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,5967) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(264,5967) = ( 264 × 5967 ) / 3
LCM(264,5967) = 1575288 / 3
LCM(264,5967) = 525096
