Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 987,6766 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 987,6766 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 648,987
3 | 648, 987 |
216, 329 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 216 x 329 = 213192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/213192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 987/648,6766/987 is 1/213192
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 648,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(648,987) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(648,987) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(648,987) = ( 648 × 987 ) / 3
LCM(648,987) = 639576 / 3
LCM(648,987) = 213192
