Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 290,1326 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 290,1326 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 465,374
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 173910
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/173910
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 290/465,1326/374 is 2/173910
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 465,374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(465,374) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(465,374) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(465,374) = ( 465 × 374 ) / 1
LCM(465,374) = 173910 / 1
LCM(465,374) = 173910
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
