Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 983,731 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 983,731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 33,549
3 | 33, 549 |
11, 183 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 11 x 183 = 6039
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6039
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 983/33,731/549 is 1/6039
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 33,549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(33,549) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(33,549) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(33,549) = ( 33 × 549 ) / 3
LCM(33,549) = 18117 / 3
LCM(33,549) = 6039
