Lets's calculate LCM of 567,147
3 | 567, 147 |
7 | 189, 49 |
27, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 27 x 7 = 3969
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/3969
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5335/567,8825/147 is 5/3969
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 567,147 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(567,147) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(567,147) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(567,147) = ( 567 × 147 ) / 21
LCM(567,147) = 83349 / 21
LCM(567,147) = 3969
