Lets's calculate LCM of 696,6156
2 | 696, 6156 |
2 | 348, 3078 |
3 | 174, 1539 |
58, 513 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 58 x 513 = 357048
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/357048
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5955/696,6276/6156 is 3/357048
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 696,6156 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(696,6156) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(696,6156) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(696,6156) = ( 696 × 6156 ) / 12
LCM(696,6156) = 4284576 / 12
LCM(696,6156) = 357048
