We found the factors 324,2275 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 324,2275 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 988,3376
2 | 988, 3376 |
2 | 494, 1688 |
247, 844 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 247 x 844 = 833872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/833872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 324/988,2275/3376 is 1/833872
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 988,3376 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(988,3376) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(988,3376) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(988,3376) = ( 988 × 3376 ) / 4
LCM(988,3376) = 3335488 / 4
LCM(988,3376) = 833872
