So the greatest common factor 9550,8310 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 243,639
3 | 243, 639 |
3 | 81, 213 |
27, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 27 x 71 = 17253
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/17253
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9550/243,8310/639 is 10/17253
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 243,639 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(243,639) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(243,639) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(243,639) = ( 243 × 639 ) / 9
LCM(243,639) = 155277 / 9
LCM(243,639) = 17253
