Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2124,2592 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2124,2592 is 36.
Lets's calculate LCM of 328,511
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 167608
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/167608
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2124/328,2592/511 is 36/167608
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 328,511 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(328,511) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(328,511) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(328,511) = ( 328 × 511 ) / 1
LCM(328,511) = 167608 / 1
LCM(328,511) = 167608
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
