Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2886,6752 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2886,6752 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 382,1761
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 672702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/672702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2886/382,6752/1761 is 2/672702
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 382,1761 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(382,1761) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(382,1761) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(382,1761) = ( 382 × 1761 ) / 1
LCM(382,1761) = 672702 / 1
LCM(382,1761) = 672702
