1,3,2441,7323
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1752,7323 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1752,7323 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,991
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 46577
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/46577
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1752/47,7323/991 is 3/46577
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 47,991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,991) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,991) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,991) = ( 47 × 991 ) / 1
LCM(47,991) = 46577 / 1
LCM(47,991) = 46577
