Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 192,7557 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 192,7557 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 550,296
2 | 550, 296 |
275, 148 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 275 x 148 = 81400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/81400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 192/550,7557/296 is 3/81400
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 550,296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(550,296) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(550,296) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(550,296) = ( 550 × 296 ) / 2
LCM(550,296) = 162800 / 2
LCM(550,296) = 81400
