Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6949,1698 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6949,1698 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 975,543
3 | 975, 543 |
325, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 325 x 181 = 176475
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/176475
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6949/975,1698/543 is 1/176475
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 975,543 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(975,543) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(975,543) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(975,543) = ( 975 × 543 ) / 3
LCM(975,543) = 529425 / 3
LCM(975,543) = 176475
