Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6036,9948 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6036,9948 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 163,312
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 50856
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/50856
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6036/163,9948/312 is 12/50856
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 163,312 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(163,312) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(163,312) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(163,312) = ( 163 × 312 ) / 1
LCM(163,312) = 50856 / 1
LCM(163,312) = 50856
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
