Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4525,5134 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4525,5134 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,687
3 | 42, 687 |
14, 229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 14 x 229 = 9618
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9618
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4525/42,5134/687 is 1/9618
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 42,687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,687) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,687) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(42,687) = ( 42 × 687 ) / 3
LCM(42,687) = 28854 / 3
LCM(42,687) = 9618
