Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 338,723 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 338,723 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 826,316
2 | 826, 316 |
413, 158 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 413 x 158 = 130508
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/130508
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 338/826,723/316 is 1/130508
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 826,316 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(826,316) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(826,316) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(826,316) = ( 826 × 316 ) / 2
LCM(826,316) = 261016 / 2
LCM(826,316) = 130508
