Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1148,3737 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1148,3737 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 426,1116
2 | 426, 1116 |
3 | 213, 558 |
71, 186 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 71 x 186 = 79236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/79236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1148/426,3737/1116 is 1/79236
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 426,1116 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(426,1116) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(426,1116) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(426,1116) = ( 426 × 1116 ) / 6
LCM(426,1116) = 475416 / 6
LCM(426,1116) = 79236
