Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7509,7490 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7509,7490 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 366,144
2 | 366, 144 |
3 | 183, 72 |
61, 24 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 61 x 24 = 8784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7509/366,7490/144 is 1/8784
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 366,144 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(366,144) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(366,144) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(366,144) = ( 366 × 144 ) / 6
LCM(366,144) = 52704 / 6
LCM(366,144) = 8784
