Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 828,537 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 828,537 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,2106
| 3 | 87, 2106 |
| 29, 702 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 29 x 702 = 61074
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/61074
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 828/87,537/2106 is 3/61074
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 87,2106 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,2106) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,2106) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(87,2106) = ( 87 × 2106 ) / 3
LCM(87,2106) = 183222 / 3
LCM(87,2106) = 61074
