We found the factors 605,549 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 605,549 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 144,604
2 | 144, 604 |
2 | 72, 302 |
36, 151 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 36 x 151 = 21744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 605/144,549/604 is 1/21744
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 144,604 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,604) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(144,604) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(144,604) = ( 144 × 604 ) / 4
LCM(144,604) = 86976 / 4
LCM(144,604) = 21744
