Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1953,7828 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1953,7828 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,531
3 | 78, 531 |
26, 177 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 26 x 177 = 13806
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13806
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1953/78,7828/531 is 1/13806
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 78,531 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,531) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,531) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(78,531) = ( 78 × 531 ) / 3
LCM(78,531) = 41418 / 3
LCM(78,531) = 13806
