Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 373,5335 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 373,5335 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 398,598
2 | 398, 598 |
199, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 199 x 299 = 119002
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/119002
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 373/398,5335/598 is 1/119002
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 398,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(398,598) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(398,598) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(398,598) = ( 398 × 598 ) / 2
LCM(398,598) = 238004 / 2
LCM(398,598) = 119002
