We found the factors 6911,1027 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6911,1027 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 596,996
2 | 596, 996 |
2 | 298, 498 |
149, 249 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 149 x 249 = 148404
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/148404
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6911/596,1027/996 is 1/148404
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 596,996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,996) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,996) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(596,996) = ( 596 × 996 ) / 4
LCM(596,996) = 593616 / 4
LCM(596,996) = 148404
