Lets's calculate LCM of 793,427
61 | 793, 427 |
13, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 61 x 13 x 7 = 5551
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/5551
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7050/793,2974/427 is 2/5551
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 793,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(793,427) = 61
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(793,427) x common factors =61 x 1 = 61
LCM(793,427) = ( 793 × 427 ) / 61
LCM(793,427) = 338611 / 61
LCM(793,427) = 5551
