Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 248,5168 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 248,5168 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 635,651
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 413385
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/413385
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 248/635,5168/651 is 8/413385
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 635,651 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(635,651) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(635,651) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(635,651) = ( 635 × 651 ) / 1
LCM(635,651) = 413385 / 1
LCM(635,651) = 413385
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
