So the greatest common factor 6901,1764 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 176,432
2 | 176, 432 |
2 | 88, 216 |
2 | 44, 108 |
2 | 22, 54 |
11, 27 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 11 x 27 = 4752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6901/176,1764/432 is 1/4752
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 176,432 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(176,432) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(176,432) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(176,432) = ( 176 × 432 ) / 16
LCM(176,432) = 76032 / 16
LCM(176,432) = 4752
