1,7,13,17,91,119,221,1547
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6691,1547 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6691,1547 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 468,712
2 | 468, 712 |
2 | 234, 356 |
117, 178 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 117 x 178 = 83304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/83304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6691/468,1547/712 is 1/83304
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 468,712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(468,712) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(468,712) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(468,712) = ( 468 × 712 ) / 4
LCM(468,712) = 333216 / 4
LCM(468,712) = 83304
