Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6551,9429 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6551,9429 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 399,783
3 | 399, 783 |
133, 261 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 133 x 261 = 104139
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/104139
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6551/399,9429/783 is 1/104139
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 399,783 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(399,783) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(399,783) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(399,783) = ( 399 × 783 ) / 3
LCM(399,783) = 312417 / 3
LCM(399,783) = 104139
