Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3815,2373 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3815,2373 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 308,454
2 | 308, 454 |
154, 227 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 154 x 227 = 69916
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/69916
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3815/308,2373/454 is 7/69916
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 308,454 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(308,454) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(308,454) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(308,454) = ( 308 × 454 ) / 2
LCM(308,454) = 139832 / 2
LCM(308,454) = 69916
