Now, list down the factors of 4032
:1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,12,14,16,18,21,24,28,32,36,42,48,56,63,64,72,84,96,112,126,144,168,192,224,252,288,336,448,504,576,672,1008,1344,2016,4032
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6656,4032 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6656,4032 is 64.
Lets's calculate LCM of 837,201
3 | 837, 201 |
279, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 279 x 67 = 56079
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 64/56079
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6656/837,4032/201 is 64/56079
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 837,201 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(837,201) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(837,201) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(837,201) = ( 837 × 201 ) / 3
LCM(837,201) = 168237 / 3
LCM(837,201) = 56079
