1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,16,18,24,32,36,48,64,72,96,128,144,192,256,288,384,576,768,1152,2304
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 955,2304 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 955,2304 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,372
3 | 51, 372 |
17, 124 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 17 x 124 = 6324
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6324
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 955/51,2304/372 is 1/6324
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 51,372 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,372) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,372) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(51,372) = ( 51 × 372 ) / 3
LCM(51,372) = 18972 / 3
LCM(51,372) = 6324
