We found the factors 2006,9036 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2006,9036 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 996,1382
2 | 996, 1382 |
498, 691 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 498 x 691 = 688236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/688236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2006/996,9036/1382 is 2/688236
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 996,1382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(996,1382) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(996,1382) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(996,1382) = ( 996 × 1382 ) / 2
LCM(996,1382) = 1376472 / 2
LCM(996,1382) = 688236
