Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6186,5734 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6186,5734 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,791
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 13447
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/13447
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6186/17,5734/791 is 2/13447
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 17,791 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,791) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,791) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,791) = ( 17 × 791 ) / 1
LCM(17,791) = 13447 / 1
LCM(17,791) = 13447
