Lets's calculate LCM of 57,234
3 | 57, 234 |
19, 78 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 19 x 78 = 4446
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/4446
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 735/57,5607/234 is 21/4446
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 57,234 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,234) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(57,234) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(57,234) = ( 57 × 234 ) / 3
LCM(57,234) = 13338 / 3
LCM(57,234) = 4446
