We found the factors 279,205 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 279,205 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 6723,9165
3 | 6723, 9165 |
2241, 3055 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 2241 x 3055 = 20538765
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20538765
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 279/6723,205/9165 is 1/20538765
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 6723,9165 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(6723,9165) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(6723,9165) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(6723,9165) = ( 6723 × 9165 ) / 3
LCM(6723,9165) = 61616295 / 3
LCM(6723,9165) = 20538765
