1,11,727,7997
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 243,7997 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 243,7997 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 466,790
2 | 466, 790 |
233, 395 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 233 x 395 = 184070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/184070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 243/466,7997/790 is 1/184070
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 466,790 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(466,790) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(466,790) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(466,790) = ( 466 × 790 ) / 2
LCM(466,790) = 368140 / 2
LCM(466,790) = 184070
