Lets's calculate LCM of 420,3369
3 | 420, 3369 |
140, 1123 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 140 x 1123 = 471660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/471660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4232/420,6137/3369 is 1/471660
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 420,3369 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,3369) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,3369) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(420,3369) = ( 420 × 3369 ) / 3
LCM(420,3369) = 1414980 / 3
LCM(420,3369) = 471660
