Now, list down the factors of 6612
:1,2,3,4,6,12,19,29,38,57,58,76,87,114,116,174,228,348,551,1102,1653,2204,3306,6612
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6429,6612 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6429,6612 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 975,1956
3 | 975, 1956 |
325, 652 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 325 x 652 = 635700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/635700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6429/975,6612/1956 is 3/635700
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 975,1956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(975,1956) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(975,1956) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(975,1956) = ( 975 × 1956 ) / 3
LCM(975,1956) = 1907100 / 3
LCM(975,1956) = 635700
