We found the factors 821,9165 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 821,9165 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 542,502
2 | 542, 502 |
271, 251 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 271 x 251 = 136042
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/136042
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 821/542,9165/502 is 1/136042
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 542,502 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(542,502) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(542,502) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(542,502) = ( 542 × 502 ) / 2
LCM(542,502) = 272084 / 2
LCM(542,502) = 136042
