Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6601,2468 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6601,2468 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 420,9666
2 | 420, 9666 |
3 | 210, 4833 |
70, 1611 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 70 x 1611 = 676620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/676620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6601/420,2468/9666 is 1/676620
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 420,9666 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(420,9666) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(420,9666) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(420,9666) = ( 420 × 9666 ) / 6
LCM(420,9666) = 4059720 / 6
LCM(420,9666) = 676620
