Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 572,309 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 572,309 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,8724
2 | 38, 8724 |
19, 4362 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 4362 = 165756
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/165756
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 572/38,309/8724 is 1/165756
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 38,8724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,8724) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(38,8724) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(38,8724) = ( 38 × 8724 ) / 2
LCM(38,8724) = 331512 / 2
LCM(38,8724) = 165756
