Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6861,5406 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6861,5406 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 252,2845
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 716940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/716940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6861/252,5406/2845 is 3/716940
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 252,2845 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(252,2845) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(252,2845) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(252,2845) = ( 252 × 2845 ) / 1
LCM(252,2845) = 716940 / 1
LCM(252,2845) = 716940
