So the greatest common factor 805,6831 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 594,162
2 | 594, 162 |
3 | 297, 81 |
3 | 99, 27 |
3 | 33, 9 |
11, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 11 x 3 = 1782
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/1782
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 805/594,6831/162 is 23/1782
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 594,162 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(594,162) = 54
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(594,162) x common factors =54 x 1 = 54
LCM(594,162) = ( 594 × 162 ) / 54
LCM(594,162) = 96228 / 54
LCM(594,162) = 1782
