Lets's calculate GCF of 621,879
3 | 621, 879 |
207, 293 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 621
:1,3,9,23,27,69,207,621
Now, list down the factors of 879
:1,3,293,879
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 621,879 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 621,879 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,763
7 | 231, 763 |
33, 109 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 33 x 109 = 25179
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/25179
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 621/231,879/763 is 3/25179
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 231,763 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,763) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,763) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(231,763) = ( 231 × 763 ) / 7
LCM(231,763) = 176253 / 7
LCM(231,763) = 25179
