We found the factors 135,351 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 135,351 is 27.
Lets's calculate LCM of 7638,5974
2 | 7638, 5974 |
3819, 2987 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3819 x 2987 = 22814706
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/22814706
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 135/7638,351/5974 is 27/22814706
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 7638,5974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(7638,5974) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(7638,5974) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(7638,5974) = ( 7638 × 5974 ) / 2
LCM(7638,5974) = 45629412 / 2
LCM(7638,5974) = 22814706
