Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6762,5497 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6762,5497 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 968,153
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 148104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/148104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6762/968,5497/153 is 23/148104
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 968,153 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(968,153) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(968,153) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(968,153) = ( 968 × 153 ) / 1
LCM(968,153) = 148104 / 1
LCM(968,153) = 148104
