Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 177,975 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 177,975 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,9933
3 | 24, 9933 |
8, 3311 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 8 x 3311 = 79464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/79464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 177/24,975/9933 is 3/79464
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 24,9933 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,9933) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,9933) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(24,9933) = ( 24 × 9933 ) / 3
LCM(24,9933) = 238392 / 3
LCM(24,9933) = 79464
