Lets's calculate LCM of 903,6333
3 | 903, 6333 |
301, 2111 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 301 x 2111 = 1906233
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1906233
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8740/903,8516/6333 is 4/1906233
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 903,6333 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(903,6333) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(903,6333) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(903,6333) = ( 903 × 6333 ) / 3
LCM(903,6333) = 5718699 / 3
LCM(903,6333) = 1906233
