We found the factors 297,4182 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 297,4182 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 526,339
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 178314
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/178314
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 297/526,4182/339 is 3/178314
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 526,339 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(526,339) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(526,339) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(526,339) = ( 526 × 339 ) / 1
LCM(526,339) = 178314 / 1
LCM(526,339) = 178314
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
