Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 244,3364 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 244,3364 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,109
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 25724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/25724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 244/236,3364/109 is 4/25724
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 236,109 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,109) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,109) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(236,109) = ( 236 × 109 ) / 1
LCM(236,109) = 25724 / 1
LCM(236,109) = 25724
