Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7980,6756 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7980,6756 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 321,548
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 175908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/175908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7980/321,6756/548 is 12/175908
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 321,548 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(321,548) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(321,548) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(321,548) = ( 321 × 548 ) / 1
LCM(321,548) = 175908 / 1
LCM(321,548) = 175908
