Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 564,870 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 564,870 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 54,141
3 | 54, 141 |
18, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 18 x 47 = 2538
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/2538
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 564/54,870/141 is 6/2538
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 54,141 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(54,141) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(54,141) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(54,141) = ( 54 × 141 ) / 3
LCM(54,141) = 7614 / 3
LCM(54,141) = 2538
