Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2152,9967 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2152,9967 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 378,471
3 | 378, 471 |
126, 157 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 126 x 157 = 59346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2152/378,9967/471 is 1/59346
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 378,471 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(378,471) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(378,471) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(378,471) = ( 378 × 471 ) / 3
LCM(378,471) = 178038 / 3
LCM(378,471) = 59346
