Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1401,6264 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1401,6264 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,780
2 | 98, 780 |
49, 390 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 49 x 390 = 38220
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/38220
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1401/98,6264/780 is 3/38220
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 98,780 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,780) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,780) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(98,780) = ( 98 × 780 ) / 2
LCM(98,780) = 76440 / 2
LCM(98,780) = 38220
