Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1854,8502 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1854,8502 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,534
| 2 | 40, 534 |
| 20, 267 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 20 x 267 = 10680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/10680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1854/40,8502/534 is 6/10680
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 40,534 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,534) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,534) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(40,534) = ( 40 × 534 ) / 2
LCM(40,534) = 21360 / 2
LCM(40,534) = 10680
