Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 230,325 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 230,325 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 888,629
37 | 888, 629 |
24, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 37 x 24 x 17 = 15096
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/15096
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 230/888,325/629 is 5/15096
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 888,629 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(888,629) = 37
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(888,629) x common factors =37 x 1 = 37
LCM(888,629) = ( 888 × 629 ) / 37
LCM(888,629) = 558552 / 37
LCM(888,629) = 15096
