So the greatest common factor 2175,6456 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 198,321
3 | 198, 321 |
66, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 66 x 107 = 21186
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/21186
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2175/198,6456/321 is 3/21186
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 198,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(198,321) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(198,321) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(198,321) = ( 198 × 321 ) / 3
LCM(198,321) = 63558 / 3
LCM(198,321) = 21186
