Now, list down the factors of 1728
:1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,16,18,24,27,32,36,48,54,64,72,96,108,144,192,216,288,432,576,864,1728
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7524,1728 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7524,1728 is 36.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,611
| 13 | 52, 611 |
| 4, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 4 x 47 = 2444
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/2444
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7524/52,1728/611 is 36/2444
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 52,611 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,611) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(52,611) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(52,611) = ( 52 × 611 ) / 13
LCM(52,611) = 31772 / 13
LCM(52,611) = 2444
