Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3650,4416 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3650,4416 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 306,170
2 | 306, 170 |
17 | 153, 85 |
9, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 17 x 9 x 5 = 1530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3650/306,4416/170 is 2/1530
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 306,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(306,170) = 34
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(306,170) x common factors =34 x 1 = 34
LCM(306,170) = ( 306 × 170 ) / 34
LCM(306,170) = 52020 / 34
LCM(306,170) = 1530
