1,2,503,1006
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6902,1006 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6902,1006 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 357,659
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 235263
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/235263
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6902/357,1006/659 is 2/235263
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 357,659 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,659) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,659) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(357,659) = ( 357 × 659 ) / 1
LCM(357,659) = 235263 / 1
LCM(357,659) = 235263
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
