3 | 411, 3408 |
137, 1136 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 411
:1,3,137,411
Now, list down the factors of 3408
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48,71,142,213,284,426,568,852,1136,1704,3408
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 411,3408 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 411,3408 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 971,662
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 642802
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/642802
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 411/971,3408/662 is 3/642802
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 971,662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,662) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,662) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,662) = ( 971 × 662 ) / 1
LCM(971,662) = 642802 / 1
LCM(971,662) = 642802
