:1,311
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 152,311 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 152,311 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,4174
2 | 76, 4174 |
38, 2087 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 38 x 2087 = 158612
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/158612
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 152/76,311/4174 is 1/158612
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 76,4174 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,4174) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(76,4174) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(76,4174) = ( 76 × 4174 ) / 2
LCM(76,4174) = 317224 / 2
LCM(76,4174) = 158612
