Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 358,5389 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 358,5389 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 369,438
3 | 369, 438 |
123, 146 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 123 x 146 = 53874
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/53874
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 358/369,5389/438 is 1/53874
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 369,438 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(369,438) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(369,438) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(369,438) = ( 369 × 438 ) / 3
LCM(369,438) = 161622 / 3
LCM(369,438) = 53874
