Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3583,5118 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3583,5118 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 671,462
11 | 671, 462 |
61, 42 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 61 x 42 = 28182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3583/671,5118/462 is 1/28182
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 671,462 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(671,462) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(671,462) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(671,462) = ( 671 × 462 ) / 11
LCM(671,462) = 310002 / 11
LCM(671,462) = 28182
