1,499
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 164,499 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 164,499 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 4491,6537
3 | 4491, 6537 |
1497, 2179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 1497 x 2179 = 9785889
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9785889
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 164/4491,499/6537 is 1/9785889
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 4491,6537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(4491,6537) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(4491,6537) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(4491,6537) = ( 4491 × 6537 ) / 3
LCM(4491,6537) = 29357667 / 3
LCM(4491,6537) = 9785889
