Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6627,3087 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6627,3087 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,841
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10092
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/10092
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6627/12,3087/841 is 3/10092
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 12,841 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,841) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(12,841) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(12,841) = ( 12 × 841 ) / 1
LCM(12,841) = 10092 / 1
LCM(12,841) = 10092
