Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6780,7428 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6780,7428 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/9870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6780/10,7428/987 is 12/9870
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 10,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(10,987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(10,987) = ( 10 × 987 ) / 1
LCM(10,987) = 9870 / 1
LCM(10,987) = 9870
