1,17,397,6749
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1596,6749 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1596,6749 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 904,324
2 | 904, 324 |
2 | 452, 162 |
226, 81 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 226 x 81 = 73224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/73224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1596/904,6749/324 is 1/73224
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 904,324 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(904,324) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(904,324) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(904,324) = ( 904 × 324 ) / 4
LCM(904,324) = 292896 / 4
LCM(904,324) = 73224
