Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3482,6552 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3482,6552 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 805,296
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 238280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/238280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3482/805,6552/296 is 2/238280
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 805,296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(805,296) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(805,296) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(805,296) = ( 805 × 296 ) / 1
LCM(805,296) = 238280 / 1
LCM(805,296) = 238280
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
