Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 32,2432 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 32,2432 is 32.
Lets's calculate LCM of 671,4638
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3112098
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/3112098
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 32/671,2432/4638 is 32/3112098
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 671,4638 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(671,4638) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(671,4638) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(671,4638) = ( 671 × 4638 ) / 1
LCM(671,4638) = 3112098 / 1
LCM(671,4638) = 3112098
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
