:1,3,1627,4881
Now, list down the factors of 7548
:1,2,3,4,6,12,17,34,37,51,68,74,102,111,148,204,222,444,629,1258,1887,2516,3774,7548
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4881,7548 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4881,7548 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 189,789
3 | 189, 789 |
63, 263 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 63 x 263 = 49707
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/49707
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4881/189,7548/789 is 3/49707
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 189,789 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(189,789) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(189,789) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(189,789) = ( 189 × 789 ) / 3
LCM(189,789) = 149121 / 3
LCM(189,789) = 49707
