We found the factors 5049,7512 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5049,7512 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 336,717
3 | 336, 717 |
112, 239 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 112 x 239 = 80304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/80304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5049/336,7512/717 is 3/80304
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 336,717 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(336,717) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(336,717) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(336,717) = ( 336 × 717 ) / 3
LCM(336,717) = 240912 / 3
LCM(336,717) = 80304
