So the greatest common factor 546,411 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 324,146
2 | 324, 146 |
162, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 162 x 73 = 23652
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/23652
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 546/324,411/146 is 3/23652
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 324,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(324,146) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(324,146) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(324,146) = ( 324 × 146 ) / 2
LCM(324,146) = 47304 / 2
LCM(324,146) = 23652
