1,2,3,6,859,1718,2577,5154
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6687,5154 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6687,5154 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 131,937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 122747
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/122747
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6687/131,5154/937 is 3/122747
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 131,937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,937) = ( 131 × 937 ) / 1
LCM(131,937) = 122747 / 1
LCM(131,937) = 122747
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
