Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8476,6240 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8476,6240 is 52.
Lets's calculate LCM of 153,2846
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 435438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 52/435438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8476/153,6240/2846 is 52/435438
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 153,2846 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(153,2846) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(153,2846) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(153,2846) = ( 153 × 2846 ) / 1
LCM(153,2846) = 435438 / 1
LCM(153,2846) = 435438
