Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3736,6835 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3736,6835 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 554,179
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 99166
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/99166
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3736/554,6835/179 is 1/99166
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 554,179 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(554,179) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(554,179) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(554,179) = ( 554 × 179 ) / 1
LCM(554,179) = 99166 / 1
LCM(554,179) = 99166
