Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 338,453 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 338,453 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 6394,4991
23 | 6394, 4991 |
278, 217 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 23 x 278 x 217 = 1387498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1387498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 338/6394,453/4991 is 1/1387498
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 6394,4991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(6394,4991) = 23
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(6394,4991) x common factors =23 x 1 = 23
LCM(6394,4991) = ( 6394 × 4991 ) / 23
LCM(6394,4991) = 31912454 / 23
LCM(6394,4991) = 1387498
