1,2,4733,9466
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1557,9466 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1557,9466 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 354,2734
2 | 354, 2734 |
177, 1367 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 177 x 1367 = 483918
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/483918
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1557/354,9466/2734 is 1/483918
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 354,2734 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(354,2734) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(354,2734) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(354,2734) = ( 354 × 2734 ) / 2
LCM(354,2734) = 967836 / 2
LCM(354,2734) = 483918
