Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 176,4491 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 176,4491 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 969,582
3 | 969, 582 |
323, 194 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 323 x 194 = 187986
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/187986
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 176/969,4491/582 is 1/187986
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 969,582 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(969,582) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(969,582) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(969,582) = ( 969 × 582 ) / 3
LCM(969,582) = 563958 / 3
LCM(969,582) = 187986
