1,2,3,6,373,746,1119,2238
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1374,2238 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1374,2238 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 343,220
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/75460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1374/343,2238/220 is 6/75460
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 343,220 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(343,220) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(343,220) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(343,220) = ( 343 × 220 ) / 1
LCM(343,220) = 75460 / 1
LCM(343,220) = 75460
