Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6607,6603 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6607,6603 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 480,228
2 | 480, 228 |
2 | 240, 114 |
3 | 120, 57 |
40, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 40 x 19 = 9120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6607/480,6603/228 is 1/9120
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 480,228 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(480,228) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(480,228) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(480,228) = ( 480 × 228 ) / 12
LCM(480,228) = 109440 / 12
LCM(480,228) = 9120
