Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2499,9989 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2499,9989 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 428,3208
2 | 428, 3208 |
2 | 214, 1604 |
107, 802 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 107 x 802 = 343256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/343256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2499/428,9989/3208 is 7/343256
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 428,3208 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(428,3208) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(428,3208) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(428,3208) = ( 428 × 3208 ) / 4
LCM(428,3208) = 1373024 / 4
LCM(428,3208) = 343256
