Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2154,7478 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2154,7478 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 478,254
2 | 478, 254 |
239, 127 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 239 x 127 = 60706
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/60706
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2154/478,7478/254 is 2/60706
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 478,254 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(478,254) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(478,254) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(478,254) = ( 478 × 254 ) / 2
LCM(478,254) = 121412 / 2
LCM(478,254) = 60706
