Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3330,6545 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3330,6545 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 974,148
2 | 974, 148 |
487, 74 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 487 x 74 = 72076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/72076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3330/974,6545/148 is 5/72076
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 974,148 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(974,148) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(974,148) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(974,148) = ( 974 × 148 ) / 2
LCM(974,148) = 144152 / 2
LCM(974,148) = 72076
