1,3739
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5780,3739 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5780,3739 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,544
2 | 236, 544 |
2 | 118, 272 |
59, 136 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 59 x 136 = 32096
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/32096
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5780/236,3739/544 is 1/32096
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 236,544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,544) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,544) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(236,544) = ( 236 × 544 ) / 4
LCM(236,544) = 128384 / 4
LCM(236,544) = 32096
