Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 900,309 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 900,309 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 849,483
3 | 849, 483 |
283, 161 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 283 x 161 = 136689
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/136689
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 900/849,309/483 is 3/136689
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 849,483 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(849,483) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(849,483) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(849,483) = ( 849 × 483 ) / 3
LCM(849,483) = 410067 / 3
LCM(849,483) = 136689
