Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1554,1047 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1554,1047 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 552,772
2 | 552, 772 |
2 | 276, 386 |
138, 193 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 138 x 193 = 106536
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/106536
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1554/552,1047/772 is 3/106536
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 552,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(552,772) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(552,772) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(552,772) = ( 552 × 772 ) / 4
LCM(552,772) = 426144 / 4
LCM(552,772) = 106536
