Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1534,1767 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1534,1767 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 246,874
2 | 246, 874 |
123, 437 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 123 x 437 = 107502
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/107502
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1534/246,1767/874 is 1/107502
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 246,874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(246,874) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(246,874) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(246,874) = ( 246 × 874 ) / 2
LCM(246,874) = 215004 / 2
LCM(246,874) = 107502
