∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 3315
:1,3,5,13,15,17,39,51,65,85,195,221,255,663,1105,3315
Now, list down the factors of 2004
:1,2,3,4,6,12,167,334,501,668,1002,2004
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3315,2004 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3315,2004 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 887,859
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 761933
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/761933
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3315/887,2004/859 is 3/761933
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 887,859 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(887,859) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(887,859) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(887,859) = ( 887 × 859 ) / 1
LCM(887,859) = 761933 / 1
LCM(887,859) = 761933
