So the greatest common factor 6657,2205 is 21.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,1512
3 | 201, 1512 |
67, 504 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 67 x 504 = 101304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/101304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6657/201,2205/1512 is 21/101304
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 201,1512 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,1512) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,1512) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(201,1512) = ( 201 × 1512 ) / 3
LCM(201,1512) = 303912 / 3
LCM(201,1512) = 101304
