∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 = 9
Now, list down the factors of 801
:1,3,9,89,267,801
Now, list down the factors of 378
:1,2,3,6,7,9,14,18,21,27,42,54,63,126,189,378
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 801,378 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 801,378 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 61,712
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 43432
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/43432
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 801/61,378/712 is 9/43432
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 61,712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(61,712) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(61,712) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(61,712) = ( 61 × 712 ) / 1
LCM(61,712) = 43432 / 1
LCM(61,712) = 43432
