Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 365,4886 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 365,4886 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 492,116
2 | 492, 116 |
2 | 246, 58 |
123, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 123 x 29 = 14268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 365/492,4886/116 is 1/14268
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 492,116 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(492,116) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(492,116) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(492,116) = ( 492 × 116 ) / 4
LCM(492,116) = 57072 / 4
LCM(492,116) = 14268
