We found the factors 1764,2682 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1764,2682 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 217,441
7 | 217, 441 |
31, 63 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 31 x 63 = 13671
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/13671
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1764/217,2682/441 is 18/13671
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 217,441 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(217,441) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(217,441) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(217,441) = ( 217 × 441 ) / 7
LCM(217,441) = 95697 / 7
LCM(217,441) = 13671
