Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9528,2532 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9528,2532 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 185,724
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/133940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9528/185,2532/724 is 12/133940
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 185,724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(185,724) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(185,724) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(185,724) = ( 185 × 724 ) / 1
LCM(185,724) = 133940 / 1
LCM(185,724) = 133940
