Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 593,744 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 593,744 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 540,324
2 | 540, 324 |
2 | 270, 162 |
3 | 135, 81 |
3 | 45, 27 |
3 | 15, 9 |
5, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 3 = 1620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 593/540,744/324 is 1/1620
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 540,324 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(540,324) = 108
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(540,324) x common factors =108 x 1 = 108
LCM(540,324) = ( 540 × 324 ) / 108
LCM(540,324) = 174960 / 108
LCM(540,324) = 1620
