1,8501
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8475,8501 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8475,8501 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 384,252
2 | 384, 252 |
2 | 192, 126 |
3 | 96, 63 |
32, 21 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 32 x 21 = 8064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8475/384,8501/252 is 1/8064
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 384,252 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(384,252) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(384,252) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(384,252) = ( 384 × 252 ) / 12
LCM(384,252) = 96768 / 12
LCM(384,252) = 8064
