Lets's calculate GCF of 699,618
3 | 699, 618 |
233, 206 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 699
:1,3,233,699
Now, list down the factors of 618
:1,2,3,6,103,206,309,618
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 699,618 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 699,618 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,1257
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 50280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/50280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 699/40,618/1257 is 3/50280
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 40,1257 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,1257) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,1257) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,1257) = ( 40 × 1257 ) / 1
LCM(40,1257) = 50280 / 1
LCM(40,1257) = 50280
