Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 254,4430 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 254,4430 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 433,427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 184891
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/184891
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 254/433,4430/427 is 2/184891
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 433,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(433,427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(433,427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(433,427) = ( 433 × 427 ) / 1
LCM(433,427) = 184891 / 1
LCM(433,427) = 184891
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
