:1,3,9,1109,3327,9981
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6042,9981 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6042,9981 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 814,2002
2 | 814, 2002 |
11 | 407, 1001 |
37, 91 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 11 x 37 x 91 = 74074
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/74074
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6042/814,9981/2002 is 3/74074
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 814,2002 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(814,2002) = 22
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(814,2002) x common factors =22 x 1 = 22
LCM(814,2002) = ( 814 × 2002 ) / 22
LCM(814,2002) = 1629628 / 22
LCM(814,2002) = 74074
