Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1540,6413 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1540,6413 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 406,362
2 | 406, 362 |
203, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 203 x 181 = 73486
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/73486
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1540/406,6413/362 is 11/73486
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 406,362 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(406,362) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(406,362) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(406,362) = ( 406 × 362 ) / 2
LCM(406,362) = 146972 / 2
LCM(406,362) = 73486
