1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,43,48,86,129,172,258,344,516,688,1032,2064
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1488,2064 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1488,2064 is 48.
Lets's calculate LCM of 75,534
3 | 75, 534 |
25, 178 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 25 x 178 = 13350
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 48/13350
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1488/75,2064/534 is 48/13350
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 75,534 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(75,534) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(75,534) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(75,534) = ( 75 × 534 ) / 3
LCM(75,534) = 40050 / 3
LCM(75,534) = 13350
