Lets's calculate LCM of 48,327
3 | 48, 327 |
16, 109 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 16 x 109 = 5232
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5232
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9255/48,8934/327 is 3/5232
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 48,327 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,327) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(48,327) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(48,327) = ( 48 × 327 ) / 3
LCM(48,327) = 15696 / 3
LCM(48,327) = 5232
