Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6973,2397 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6973,2397 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 912,212
2 | 912, 212 |
2 | 456, 106 |
228, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 228 x 53 = 48336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/48336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6973/912,2397/212 is 1/48336
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 912,212 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(912,212) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(912,212) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(912,212) = ( 912 × 212 ) / 4
LCM(912,212) = 193344 / 4
LCM(912,212) = 48336
