Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1317,8611 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1317,8611 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 852,572
2 | 852, 572 |
2 | 426, 286 |
213, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 213 x 143 = 121836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/121836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1317/852,8611/572 is 1/121836
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 852,572 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(852,572) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(852,572) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(852,572) = ( 852 × 572 ) / 4
LCM(852,572) = 487344 / 4
LCM(852,572) = 121836
