Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2400,8850 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2400,8850 is 150.
Lets's calculate LCM of 664,616
2 | 664, 616 |
2 | 332, 308 |
2 | 166, 154 |
83, 77 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 83 x 77 = 51128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 150/51128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2400/664,8850/616 is 150/51128
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 664,616 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(664,616) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(664,616) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(664,616) = ( 664 × 616 ) / 8
LCM(664,616) = 409024 / 8
LCM(664,616) = 51128
