Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 705,573 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 705,573 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 264,543
3 | 264, 543 |
88, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 88 x 181 = 47784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/47784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 705/264,573/543 is 3/47784
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 264,543 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(264,543) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(264,543) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(264,543) = ( 264 × 543 ) / 3
LCM(264,543) = 143352 / 3
LCM(264,543) = 47784
