We found the factors 279,6102 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 279,6102 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,356
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27412
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/27412
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 279/77,6102/356 is 9/27412
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 77,356 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,356) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,356) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,356) = ( 77 × 356 ) / 1
LCM(77,356) = 27412 / 1
LCM(77,356) = 27412
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
