1,5,31,41,155,205,1271,6355
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3149,6355 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3149,6355 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 36,588
2 | 36, 588 |
2 | 18, 294 |
3 | 9, 147 |
3, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 49 = 1764
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1764
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3149/36,6355/588 is 1/1764
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 36,588 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,588) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(36,588) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(36,588) = ( 36 × 588 ) / 12
LCM(36,588) = 21168 / 12
LCM(36,588) = 1764
