Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 754,1812 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 754,1812 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 462,312
2 | 462, 312 |
3 | 231, 156 |
77, 52 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 77 x 52 = 24024
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/24024
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 754/462,1812/312 is 2/24024
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 462,312 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(462,312) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(462,312) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(462,312) = ( 462 × 312 ) / 6
LCM(462,312) = 144144 / 6
LCM(462,312) = 24024
