2 | 402, 6972 |
3 | 201, 3486 |
67, 1162 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 67 x 1162 = 467124
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/467124
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6629/402,9785/6972 is 1/467124
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 402,6972 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(402,6972) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(402,6972) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(402,6972) = ( 402 × 6972 ) / 6
LCM(402,6972) = 2802744 / 6
LCM(402,6972) = 467124
