Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5009,4526 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5009,4526 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 741,1872
3 | 741, 1872 |
13 | 247, 624 |
19, 48 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 13 x 19 x 48 = 35568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/35568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5009/741,4526/1872 is 1/35568
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 741,1872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(741,1872) = 39
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(741,1872) x common factors =39 x 1 = 39
LCM(741,1872) = ( 741 × 1872 ) / 39
LCM(741,1872) = 1387152 / 39
LCM(741,1872) = 35568
