Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1580,6148 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1580,6148 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,687
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 52899
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/52899
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1580/77,6148/687 is 4/52899
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 77,687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,687) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,687) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,687) = ( 77 × 687 ) / 1
LCM(77,687) = 52899 / 1
LCM(77,687) = 52899
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
