Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 699,879 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 699,879 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 549,600
3 | 549, 600 |
183, 200 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 183 x 200 = 109800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/109800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 699/549,879/600 is 3/109800
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 549,600 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(549,600) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(549,600) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(549,600) = ( 549 × 600 ) / 3
LCM(549,600) = 329400 / 3
LCM(549,600) = 109800
