Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6142,1463 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6142,1463 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 123,717
3 | 123, 717 |
41, 239 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 41 x 239 = 29397
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29397
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6142/123,1463/717 is 1/29397
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 123,717 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(123,717) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(123,717) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(123,717) = ( 123 × 717 ) / 3
LCM(123,717) = 88191 / 3
LCM(123,717) = 29397
