Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 748,248 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 748,248 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,181
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14661
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/14661
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 748/81,248/181 is 4/14661
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 81,181 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,181) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,181) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(81,181) = ( 81 × 181 ) / 1
LCM(81,181) = 14661 / 1
LCM(81,181) = 14661
