Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 633,7182 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 633,7182 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 502,346
2 | 502, 346 |
251, 173 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 251 x 173 = 86846
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/86846
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 633/502,7182/346 is 3/86846
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 502,346 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,346) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,346) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(502,346) = ( 502 × 346 ) / 2
LCM(502,346) = 173692 / 2
LCM(502,346) = 86846
