Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 752,1036 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 752,1036 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 146,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 39566
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/39566
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 752/146,1036/271 is 4/39566
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 146,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(146,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(146,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(146,271) = ( 146 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(146,271) = 39566 / 1
LCM(146,271) = 39566
