:1,3,9,19,27,57,81,171,513,1539
Now, list down the factors of 6966
:1,2,3,6,9,18,27,43,54,81,86,129,162,258,387,774,1161,2322,3483,6966
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1539,6966 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1539,6966 is 81.
Lets's calculate LCM of 272,710
2 | 272, 710 |
136, 355 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 136 x 355 = 96560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 81/96560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1539/272,6966/710 is 81/96560
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 272,710 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(272,710) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(272,710) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(272,710) = ( 272 × 710 ) / 2
LCM(272,710) = 193120 / 2
LCM(272,710) = 96560
