Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 224,7584 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 224,7584 is 32.
Lets's calculate LCM of 456,925
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 421800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/421800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 224/456,7584/925 is 32/421800
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 456,925 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(456,925) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(456,925) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(456,925) = ( 456 × 925 ) / 1
LCM(456,925) = 421800 / 1
LCM(456,925) = 421800
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
