Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1698,9790 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1698,9790 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 502,458
2 | 502, 458 |
251, 229 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 251 x 229 = 114958
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/114958
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1698/502,9790/458 is 2/114958
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 502,458 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,458) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,458) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(502,458) = ( 502 × 458 ) / 2
LCM(502,458) = 229916 / 2
LCM(502,458) = 114958
