We found the factors 878,515 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 878,515 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,9248
17 | 51, 9248 |
3, 544 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 17 x 3 x 544 = 27744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/27744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 878/51,515/9248 is 1/27744
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 51,9248 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,9248) = 17
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,9248) x common factors =17 x 1 = 17
LCM(51,9248) = ( 51 × 9248 ) / 17
LCM(51,9248) = 471648 / 17
LCM(51,9248) = 27744
