We found the factors 51,7543 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 51,7543 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 171,1050
3 | 171, 1050 |
57, 350 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 57 x 350 = 59850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 51/171,7543/1050 is 1/59850
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 171,1050 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,1050) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,1050) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(171,1050) = ( 171 × 1050 ) / 3
LCM(171,1050) = 179550 / 3
LCM(171,1050) = 59850
