Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3334,2786 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3334,2786 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 683,176
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 120208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/120208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3334/683,2786/176 is 2/120208
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 683,176 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(683,176) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(683,176) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(683,176) = ( 683 × 176 ) / 1
LCM(683,176) = 120208 / 1
LCM(683,176) = 120208
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
