Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6858,3600 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6858,3600 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,698
2 | 70, 698 |
35, 349 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 35 x 349 = 24430
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/24430
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6858/70,3600/698 is 18/24430
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 70,698 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,698) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,698) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(70,698) = ( 70 × 698 ) / 2
LCM(70,698) = 48860 / 2
LCM(70,698) = 24430
