We found the factors 6855,6672 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6855,6672 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 106,8960
2 | 106, 8960 |
53, 4480 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 53 x 4480 = 474880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/474880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6855/106,6672/8960 is 3/474880
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 106,8960 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(106,8960) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(106,8960) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(106,8960) = ( 106 × 8960 ) / 2
LCM(106,8960) = 949760 / 2
LCM(106,8960) = 474880
