Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 237,755 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 237,755 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9583,2146
37 | 9583, 2146 |
259, 58 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 37 x 259 x 58 = 555814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/555814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 237/9583,755/2146 is 1/555814
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 9583,2146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9583,2146) = 37
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9583,2146) x common factors =37 x 1 = 37
LCM(9583,2146) = ( 9583 × 2146 ) / 37
LCM(9583,2146) = 20565118 / 37
LCM(9583,2146) = 555814
