Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 276,816 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 276,816 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 204,903
3 | 204, 903 |
68, 301 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 68 x 301 = 61404
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/61404
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 276/204,816/903 is 12/61404
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 204,903 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(204,903) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(204,903) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(204,903) = ( 204 × 903 ) / 3
LCM(204,903) = 184212 / 3
LCM(204,903) = 61404
