1,2,17,34,79,158,1343,2686
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1050,2686 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1050,2686 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 146,8250
2 | 146, 8250 |
73, 4125 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 73 x 4125 = 602250
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/602250
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1050/146,2686/8250 is 2/602250
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 146,8250 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(146,8250) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(146,8250) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(146,8250) = ( 146 × 8250 ) / 2
LCM(146,8250) = 1204500 / 2
LCM(146,8250) = 602250
