Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6017,5995 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6017,5995 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 467,148
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 69116
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/69116
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6017/467,5995/148 is 11/69116
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 467,148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(467,148) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(467,148) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(467,148) = ( 467 × 148 ) / 1
LCM(467,148) = 69116 / 1
LCM(467,148) = 69116
