We found the factors 12,5772 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 12,5772 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 630,9981
3 | 630, 9981 |
3 | 210, 3327 |
70, 1109 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 70 x 1109 = 698670
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/698670
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 12/630,5772/9981 is 12/698670
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 630,9981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(630,9981) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(630,9981) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(630,9981) = ( 630 × 9981 ) / 9
LCM(630,9981) = 6288030 / 9
LCM(630,9981) = 698670
