Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7578,1730 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7578,1730 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 364,9842
2 | 364, 9842 |
7 | 182, 4921 |
26, 703 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 26 x 703 = 255892
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/255892
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7578/364,1730/9842 is 2/255892
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 364,9842 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(364,9842) = 14
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(364,9842) x common factors =14 x 1 = 14
LCM(364,9842) = ( 364 × 9842 ) / 14
LCM(364,9842) = 3582488 / 14
LCM(364,9842) = 255892
