Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2044,2912 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2044,2912 is 28.
Lets's calculate LCM of 199,4724
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 940076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/940076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2044/199,2912/4724 is 28/940076
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 199,4724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(199,4724) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(199,4724) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(199,4724) = ( 199 × 4724 ) / 1
LCM(199,4724) = 940076 / 1
LCM(199,4724) = 940076
