Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 654,4212 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 654,4212 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 204,9603
3 | 204, 9603 |
68, 3201 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 68 x 3201 = 653004
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/653004
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 654/204,4212/9603 is 6/653004
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 204,9603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(204,9603) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(204,9603) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(204,9603) = ( 204 × 9603 ) / 3
LCM(204,9603) = 1959012 / 3
LCM(204,9603) = 653004
