Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 900,216 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 900,216 is 36.
Lets's calculate LCM of 50,2457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 122850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/122850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 900/50,216/2457 is 36/122850
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 50,2457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(50,2457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(50,2457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(50,2457) = ( 50 × 2457 ) / 1
LCM(50,2457) = 122850 / 1
LCM(50,2457) = 122850
