Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6862,1895 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6862,1895 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 204,418
2 | 204, 418 |
102, 209 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 102 x 209 = 42636
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42636
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6862/204,1895/418 is 1/42636
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 204,418 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(204,418) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(204,418) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(204,418) = ( 204 × 418 ) / 2
LCM(204,418) = 85272 / 2
LCM(204,418) = 42636
