Lets's calculate LCM of 6906,1527
3 | 6906, 1527 |
2302, 509 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 2302 x 509 = 3515154
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/3515154
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 540/6906,704/1527 is 4/3515154
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 6906,1527 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(6906,1527) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(6906,1527) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(6906,1527) = ( 6906 × 1527 ) / 3
LCM(6906,1527) = 10545462 / 3
LCM(6906,1527) = 3515154
