Lets's calculate LCM of 417,261
3 | 417, 261 |
139, 87 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 139 x 87 = 36279
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/36279
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 582/417,1875/261 is 3/36279
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 417,261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(417,261) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(417,261) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(417,261) = ( 417 × 261 ) / 3
LCM(417,261) = 108837 / 3
LCM(417,261) = 36279
