Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3746,5849 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3746,5849 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 890,560
2 | 890, 560 |
5 | 445, 280 |
89, 56 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 89 x 56 = 49840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/49840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3746/890,5849/560 is 1/49840
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 890,560 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(890,560) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(890,560) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(890,560) = ( 890 × 560 ) / 10
LCM(890,560) = 498400 / 10
LCM(890,560) = 49840
