So the greatest common factor 817,872 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 94,6157
47 | 94, 6157 |
2, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 47 x 2 x 131 = 12314
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12314
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 817/94,872/6157 is 1/12314
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 94,6157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(94,6157) = 47
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(94,6157) x common factors =47 x 1 = 47
LCM(94,6157) = ( 94 × 6157 ) / 47
LCM(94,6157) = 578758 / 47
LCM(94,6157) = 12314
