Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6306,1143 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6306,1143 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,5100
3 | 231, 5100 |
77, 1700 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 77 x 1700 = 392700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/392700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6306/231,1143/5100 is 3/392700
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 231,5100 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,5100) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,5100) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(231,5100) = ( 231 × 5100 ) / 3
LCM(231,5100) = 1178100 / 3
LCM(231,5100) = 392700
