So the greatest common factor 435,930 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 207,738
3 | 207, 738 |
3 | 69, 246 |
23, 82 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 23 x 82 = 16974
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/16974
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 435/207,930/738 is 15/16974
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 207,738 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(207,738) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(207,738) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(207,738) = ( 207 × 738 ) / 9
LCM(207,738) = 152766 / 9
LCM(207,738) = 16974
