Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1041,6972 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1041,6972 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 582,2337
3 | 582, 2337 |
194, 779 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 194 x 779 = 453378
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/453378
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1041/582,6972/2337 is 3/453378
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 582,2337 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(582,2337) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(582,2337) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(582,2337) = ( 582 × 2337 ) / 3
LCM(582,2337) = 1360134 / 3
LCM(582,2337) = 453378
