Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6981,4012 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6981,4012 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 572,656
2 | 572, 656 |
2 | 286, 328 |
143, 164 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 143 x 164 = 93808
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/93808
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6981/572,4012/656 is 1/93808
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 572,656 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,656) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,656) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(572,656) = ( 572 × 656 ) / 4
LCM(572,656) = 375232 / 4
LCM(572,656) = 93808
