Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6236,6012 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6236,6012 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 165,4249
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 701085
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/701085
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6236/165,6012/4249 is 4/701085
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 165,4249 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(165,4249) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(165,4249) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(165,4249) = ( 165 × 4249 ) / 1
LCM(165,4249) = 701085 / 1
LCM(165,4249) = 701085
