We found the factors 3204,4812 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3204,4812 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 522,6000
2 | 522, 6000 |
3 | 261, 3000 |
87, 1000 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 87 x 1000 = 522000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/522000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3204/522,4812/6000 is 12/522000
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 522,6000 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(522,6000) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(522,6000) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(522,6000) = ( 522 × 6000 ) / 6
LCM(522,6000) = 3132000 / 6
LCM(522,6000) = 522000
