Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2930,2592 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2930,2592 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 228,4601
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1049028
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1049028
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2930/228,2592/4601 is 2/1049028
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 228,4601 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(228,4601) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(228,4601) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(228,4601) = ( 228 × 4601 ) / 1
LCM(228,4601) = 1049028 / 1
LCM(228,4601) = 1049028
