Lets's calculate LCM of 27,5243
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 141561
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/141561
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 768/27,945/5243 is 3/141561
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 27,5243 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,5243) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(27,5243) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(27,5243) = ( 27 × 5243 ) / 1
LCM(27,5243) = 141561 / 1
LCM(27,5243) = 141561
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
