1,2,4,557,1114,2228
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2320,2228 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2320,2228 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 85,588
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 49980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/49980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2320/85,2228/588 is 4/49980
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 85,588 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(85,588) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(85,588) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(85,588) = ( 85 × 588 ) / 1
LCM(85,588) = 49980 / 1
LCM(85,588) = 49980
