Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 662,6864 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 662,6864 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 291,600
3 | 291, 600 |
97, 200 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 97 x 200 = 58200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/58200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 662/291,6864/600 is 2/58200
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 291,600 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(291,600) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(291,600) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(291,600) = ( 291 × 600 ) / 3
LCM(291,600) = 174600 / 3
LCM(291,600) = 58200
