Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2554,1876 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2554,1876 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 136,727
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 98872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/98872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2554/136,1876/727 is 2/98872
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 136,727 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(136,727) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(136,727) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(136,727) = ( 136 × 727 ) / 1
LCM(136,727) = 98872 / 1
LCM(136,727) = 98872
