Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2602,5980 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2602,5980 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 478,1624
2 | 478, 1624 |
239, 812 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 239 x 812 = 388136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/388136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2602/478,5980/1624 is 2/388136
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 478,1624 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(478,1624) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(478,1624) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(478,1624) = ( 478 × 1624 ) / 2
LCM(478,1624) = 776272 / 2
LCM(478,1624) = 388136
