Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5500,1234 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5500,1234 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 216,6151
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1328616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1328616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5500/216,1234/6151 is 2/1328616
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 216,6151 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(216,6151) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(216,6151) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(216,6151) = ( 216 × 6151 ) / 1
LCM(216,6151) = 1328616 / 1
LCM(216,6151) = 1328616
