Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6593,5195 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6593,5195 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 172,852
2 | 172, 852 |
2 | 86, 426 |
43, 213 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 43 x 213 = 36636
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36636
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6593/172,5195/852 is 1/36636
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 172,852 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(172,852) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(172,852) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(172,852) = ( 172 × 852 ) / 4
LCM(172,852) = 146544 / 4
LCM(172,852) = 36636
