Lets's calculate LCM of 966,3381
3 | 966, 3381 |
7 | 322, 1127 |
23 | 46, 161 |
2, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 23 x 2 x 7 = 6762
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6762
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7531/966,3798/3381 is 1/6762
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 966,3381 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,3381) = 483
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,3381) x common factors =483 x 1 = 483
LCM(966,3381) = ( 966 × 3381 ) / 483
LCM(966,3381) = 3266046 / 483
LCM(966,3381) = 6762
