Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1505,4378 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1505,4378 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 790,358
2 | 790, 358 |
395, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 395 x 179 = 141410
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/141410
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1505/790,4378/358 is 1/141410
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 790,358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(790,358) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(790,358) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(790,358) = ( 790 × 358 ) / 2
LCM(790,358) = 282820 / 2
LCM(790,358) = 141410
