So the greatest common factor 4011,5892 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 207,585
3 | 207, 585 |
3 | 69, 195 |
23, 65 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 23 x 65 = 13455
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/13455
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4011/207,5892/585 is 3/13455
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 207,585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(207,585) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(207,585) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(207,585) = ( 207 × 585 ) / 9
LCM(207,585) = 121095 / 9
LCM(207,585) = 13455
