Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6789,5046 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6789,5046 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 902,551
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 497002
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/497002
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6789/902,5046/551 is 3/497002
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 902,551 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(902,551) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(902,551) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(902,551) = ( 902 × 551 ) / 1
LCM(902,551) = 497002 / 1
LCM(902,551) = 497002
