Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7174,3452 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7174,3452 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 611,2356
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1439516
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1439516
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7174/611,3452/2356 is 2/1439516
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 611,2356 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(611,2356) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(611,2356) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(611,2356) = ( 611 × 2356 ) / 1
LCM(611,2356) = 1439516 / 1
LCM(611,2356) = 1439516
