The GCF of 82,83 is 1 .
LCM of 546,9738 is 886158.
The greatest common factor of 82/546,83/9738 = [GCF of 82,83]/[LCM of 546,9738]= 1/886158
Therefore, the GCF of 82/546,83/9738 is 1/886158.
To find the highest common factor of 82,83, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 82 are 1, 2, 41, 82
The factors of 83 are 1, 83
The HCF of 82,83 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 82,83
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 546,9738
2 | 546, 9738 |
3 | 273, 4869 |
91, 1623 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 91 x 1623 = 886158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/886158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 82/546,83/9738 is 1/886158
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 546,9738 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(546,9738) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(546,9738) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(546,9738) = ( 546 × 9738 ) / 6
LCM(546,9738) = 5316948 / 6
LCM(546,9738) = 886158
