Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 675,5543 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 675,5543 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 718,474
2 | 718, 474 |
359, 237 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 359 x 237 = 170166
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/170166
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 675/718,5543/474 is 1/170166
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 718,474 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(718,474) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(718,474) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(718,474) = ( 718 × 474 ) / 2
LCM(718,474) = 340332 / 2
LCM(718,474) = 170166
