Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8592,4512 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8592,4512 is 48.
Lets's calculate LCM of 254,8949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2273046
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 48/2273046
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8592/254,4512/8949 is 48/2273046
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 254,8949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(254,8949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(254,8949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(254,8949) = ( 254 × 8949 ) / 1
LCM(254,8949) = 2273046 / 1
LCM(254,8949) = 2273046
