Lets's calculate LCM of 585,849
3 | 585, 849 |
195, 283 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 195 x 283 = 165555
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/165555
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7617/585,1185/849 is 3/165555
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 585,849 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(585,849) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(585,849) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(585,849) = ( 585 × 849 ) / 3
LCM(585,849) = 496665 / 3
LCM(585,849) = 165555
