We found the factors 779,1731 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 779,1731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 213,156
3 | 213, 156 |
71, 52 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 71 x 52 = 11076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 779/213,1731/156 is 1/11076
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 213,156 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(213,156) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(213,156) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(213,156) = ( 213 × 156 ) / 3
LCM(213,156) = 33228 / 3
LCM(213,156) = 11076
