Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3386,3332 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3386,3332 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,445
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12905
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/12905
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3386/29,3332/445 is 2/12905
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 29,445 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,445) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,445) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,445) = ( 29 × 445 ) / 1
LCM(29,445) = 12905 / 1
LCM(29,445) = 12905
