We found the factors 9921,2955 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9921,2955 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 566,212
2 | 566, 212 |
283, 106 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 283 x 106 = 59996
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/59996
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9921/566,2955/212 is 3/59996
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 566,212 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(566,212) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(566,212) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(566,212) = ( 566 × 212 ) / 2
LCM(566,212) = 119992 / 2
LCM(566,212) = 59996
