Lets's calculate LCM of 105,8487
3 | 105, 8487 |
35, 2829 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 35 x 2829 = 297045
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/297045
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8931/105,3871/8487 is 1/297045
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 105,8487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(105,8487) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(105,8487) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(105,8487) = ( 105 × 8487 ) / 3
LCM(105,8487) = 891135 / 3
LCM(105,8487) = 297045
