1,3,13,39,181,543,2353,7059
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3690,7059 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3690,7059 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,604
2 | 42, 604 |
21, 302 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 21 x 302 = 12684
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/12684
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3690/42,7059/604 is 3/12684
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 42,604 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,604) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,604) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(42,604) = ( 42 × 604 ) / 2
LCM(42,604) = 25368 / 2
LCM(42,604) = 12684
