Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4974,6603 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4974,6603 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 213,2872
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 611736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/611736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4974/213,6603/2872 is 3/611736
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 213,2872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(213,2872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(213,2872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(213,2872) = ( 213 × 2872 ) / 1
LCM(213,2872) = 611736 / 1
LCM(213,2872) = 611736
