Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2584,2736 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2584,2736 is 152.
Lets's calculate LCM of 117,2255
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 263835
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 152/263835
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2584/117,2736/2255 is 152/263835
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 117,2255 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(117,2255) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(117,2255) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(117,2255) = ( 117 × 2255 ) / 1
LCM(117,2255) = 263835 / 1
LCM(117,2255) = 263835
