Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5193,4707 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5193,4707 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 312,507
3 | 312, 507 |
13 | 104, 169 |
8, 13 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 13 x 8 x 13 = 4056
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/4056
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5193/312,4707/507 is 9/4056
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 312,507 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(312,507) = 39
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(312,507) x common factors =39 x 1 = 39
LCM(312,507) = ( 312 × 507 ) / 39
LCM(312,507) = 158184 / 39
LCM(312,507) = 4056
