Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 366,3981 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 366,3981 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,350
2 | 78, 350 |
39, 175 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 39 x 175 = 13650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/13650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 366/78,3981/350 is 3/13650
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 78,350 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,350) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,350) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(78,350) = ( 78 × 350 ) / 2
LCM(78,350) = 27300 / 2
LCM(78,350) = 13650
