Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2664,1675 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2664,1675 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,746
| 2 | 72, 746 |
| 36, 373 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 36 x 373 = 26856
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26856
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2664/72,1675/746 is 1/26856
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 72,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,746) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,746) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(72,746) = ( 72 × 746 ) / 2
LCM(72,746) = 53712 / 2
LCM(72,746) = 26856
