Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 115,589 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 115,589 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 62,844
2 | 62, 844 |
31, 422 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 31 x 422 = 26164
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26164
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 115/62,589/844 is 1/26164
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 62,844 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(62,844) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(62,844) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(62,844) = ( 62 × 844 ) / 2
LCM(62,844) = 52328 / 2
LCM(62,844) = 26164
