Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1752,7980 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1752,7980 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 173,332
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 57436
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/57436
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1752/173,7980/332 is 12/57436
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 173,332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,332) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,332) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,332) = ( 173 × 332 ) / 1
LCM(173,332) = 57436 / 1
LCM(173,332) = 57436
