:1,3,23,59,69,177,1357,4071
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6120,4071 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6120,4071 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 297,400
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 118800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/118800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6120/297,4071/400 is 3/118800
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 297,400 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(297,400) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(297,400) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(297,400) = ( 297 × 400 ) / 1
LCM(297,400) = 118800 / 1
LCM(297,400) = 118800
