Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 353,470 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 353,470 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2132,5246
2 | 2132, 5246 |
1066, 2623 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 1066 x 2623 = 5592236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5592236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 353/2132,470/5246 is 1/5592236
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 2132,5246 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2132,5246) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2132,5246) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(2132,5246) = ( 2132 × 5246 ) / 2
LCM(2132,5246) = 11184472 / 2
LCM(2132,5246) = 5592236
