Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6844,4277 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6844,4277 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,573
3 | 72, 573 |
24, 191 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 24 x 191 = 13752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6844/72,4277/573 is 1/13752
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 72,573 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,573) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,573) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(72,573) = ( 72 × 573 ) / 3
LCM(72,573) = 41256 / 3
LCM(72,573) = 13752
