Lets's calculate LCM of 81,8934
3 | 81, 8934 |
27, 2978 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 27 x 2978 = 241218
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/241218
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 520/81,559/8934 is 13/241218
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 81,8934 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,8934) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,8934) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(81,8934) = ( 81 × 8934 ) / 3
LCM(81,8934) = 723654 / 3
LCM(81,8934) = 241218
