Lets's calculate LCM of 489,6159
3 | 489, 6159 |
163, 2053 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 163 x 2053 = 1003917
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 44/1003917
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5324/489,3344/6159 is 44/1003917
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 489,6159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(489,6159) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(489,6159) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(489,6159) = ( 489 × 6159 ) / 3
LCM(489,6159) = 3011751 / 3
LCM(489,6159) = 1003917
