Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4147,1662 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4147,1662 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 759,187
11 | 759, 187 |
69, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 69 x 17 = 12903
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12903
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4147/759,1662/187 is 1/12903
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 759,187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(759,187) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(759,187) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(759,187) = ( 759 × 187 ) / 11
LCM(759,187) = 141933 / 11
LCM(759,187) = 12903
