So the greatest common factor 7041,7424 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 432,687
3 | 432, 687 |
144, 229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 144 x 229 = 98928
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/98928
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7041/432,7424/687 is 1/98928
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 432,687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(432,687) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(432,687) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(432,687) = ( 432 × 687 ) / 3
LCM(432,687) = 296784 / 3
LCM(432,687) = 98928
