Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1455,1758 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1455,1758 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 962,183
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 176046
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/176046
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1455/962,1758/183 is 3/176046
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 962,183 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(962,183) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(962,183) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(962,183) = ( 962 × 183 ) / 1
LCM(962,183) = 176046 / 1
LCM(962,183) = 176046
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
