Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9717,6597 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9717,6597 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 612,131
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 80172
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/80172
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9717/612,6597/131 is 3/80172
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 612,131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(612,131) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(612,131) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(612,131) = ( 612 × 131 ) / 1
LCM(612,131) = 80172 / 1
LCM(612,131) = 80172
