1,2689
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3594,2689 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3594,2689 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 285,294
3 | 285, 294 |
95, 98 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 95 x 98 = 27930
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/27930
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3594/285,2689/294 is 1/27930
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 285,294 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(285,294) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(285,294) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(285,294) = ( 285 × 294 ) / 3
LCM(285,294) = 83790 / 3
LCM(285,294) = 27930
