1,2,3,6,7,14,21,42,191,382,573,1146,1337,2674,4011,8022
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 36,8022 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 36,8022 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 200,4542
2 | 200, 4542 |
100, 2271 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 100 x 2271 = 454200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/454200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 36/200,8022/4542 is 6/454200
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 200,4542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(200,4542) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(200,4542) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(200,4542) = ( 200 × 4542 ) / 2
LCM(200,4542) = 908400 / 2
LCM(200,4542) = 454200
