Lets's calculate LCM of 972,6699
3 | 972, 6699 |
324, 2233 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 324 x 2233 = 2170476
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2170476
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7068/972,6969/6699 is 3/2170476
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 972,6699 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,6699) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,6699) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(972,6699) = ( 972 × 6699 ) / 3
LCM(972,6699) = 6511428 / 3
LCM(972,6699) = 2170476
