Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2657,3988 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2657,3988 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 464,820
2 | 464, 820 |
2 | 232, 410 |
116, 205 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 116 x 205 = 95120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/95120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2657/464,3988/820 is 1/95120
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 464,820 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(464,820) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(464,820) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(464,820) = ( 464 × 820 ) / 4
LCM(464,820) = 380480 / 4
LCM(464,820) = 95120
