Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6016,6724 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6016,6724 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 173,9234
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1597482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1597482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6016/173,6724/9234 is 4/1597482
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 173,9234 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,9234) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,9234) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,9234) = ( 173 × 9234 ) / 1
LCM(173,9234) = 1597482 / 1
LCM(173,9234) = 1597482
