Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 289,3824 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 289,3824 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 844,340
2 | 844, 340 |
2 | 422, 170 |
211, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 211 x 85 = 71740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/71740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 289/844,3824/340 is 1/71740
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 844,340 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(844,340) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(844,340) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(844,340) = ( 844 × 340 ) / 4
LCM(844,340) = 286960 / 4
LCM(844,340) = 71740
