Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8728,3073 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8728,3073 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 600,1524
2 | 600, 1524 |
2 | 300, 762 |
3 | 150, 381 |
50, 127 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 50 x 127 = 76200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/76200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8728/600,3073/1524 is 1/76200
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 600,1524 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(600,1524) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(600,1524) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(600,1524) = ( 600 × 1524 ) / 12
LCM(600,1524) = 914400 / 12
LCM(600,1524) = 76200
