Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5316,6276 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5316,6276 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 510,987
3 | 510, 987 |
170, 329 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 170 x 329 = 167790
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/167790
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5316/510,6276/987 is 12/167790
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 510,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(510,987) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(510,987) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(510,987) = ( 510 × 987 ) / 3
LCM(510,987) = 503370 / 3
LCM(510,987) = 167790
