We found the factors 2823,8652 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2823,8652 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 492,1732
2 | 492, 1732 |
2 | 246, 866 |
123, 433 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 123 x 433 = 213036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/213036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2823/492,8652/1732 is 3/213036
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 492,1732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(492,1732) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(492,1732) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(492,1732) = ( 492 × 1732 ) / 4
LCM(492,1732) = 852144 / 4
LCM(492,1732) = 213036
