Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 546,5768 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 546,5768 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,531
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/16992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 546/32,5768/531 is 14/16992
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 32,531 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,531) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(32,531) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(32,531) = ( 32 × 531 ) / 1
LCM(32,531) = 16992 / 1
LCM(32,531) = 16992
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
