We found the factors 69,6486 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 69,6486 is 69.
Lets's calculate LCM of 496,1458
2 | 496, 1458 |
248, 729 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 248 x 729 = 361584
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 69/361584
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 69/496,6486/1458 is 69/361584
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 496,1458 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(496,1458) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(496,1458) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(496,1458) = ( 496 × 1458 ) / 2
LCM(496,1458) = 723168 / 2
LCM(496,1458) = 361584
