:1,3,5,15,577,1731,2885,8655
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8604,8655 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8604,8655 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 152,4826
2 | 152, 4826 |
19 | 76, 2413 |
4, 127 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 4 x 127 = 19304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/19304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8604/152,8655/4826 is 3/19304
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 152,4826 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(152,4826) = 38
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(152,4826) x common factors =38 x 1 = 38
LCM(152,4826) = ( 152 × 4826 ) / 38
LCM(152,4826) = 733552 / 38
LCM(152,4826) = 19304
