Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3522,1941 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3522,1941 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 412,5416
2 | 412, 5416 |
2 | 206, 2708 |
103, 1354 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 103 x 1354 = 557848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/557848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3522/412,1941/5416 is 3/557848
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 412,5416 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(412,5416) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(412,5416) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(412,5416) = ( 412 × 5416 ) / 4
LCM(412,5416) = 2231392 / 4
LCM(412,5416) = 557848
