Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3009,4755 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3009,4755 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 870,1711
29 | 870, 1711 |
30, 59 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 29 x 30 x 59 = 51330
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/51330
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3009/870,4755/1711 is 3/51330
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 870,1711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(870,1711) = 29
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(870,1711) x common factors =29 x 1 = 29
LCM(870,1711) = ( 870 × 1711 ) / 29
LCM(870,1711) = 1488570 / 29
LCM(870,1711) = 51330
