1,2,3,6,9,18,103,206,309,618,927,1854
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2481,1854 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2481,1854 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,762
2 | 46, 762 |
23, 381 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 381 = 17526
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/17526
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2481/46,1854/762 is 3/17526
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 46,762 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,762) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,762) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(46,762) = ( 46 × 762 ) / 2
LCM(46,762) = 35052 / 2
LCM(46,762) = 17526
