Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 404,9480 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 404,9480 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 619,601
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 372019
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/372019
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 404/619,9480/601 is 4/372019
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 619,601 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(619,601) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(619,601) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(619,601) = ( 619 × 601 ) / 1
LCM(619,601) = 372019 / 1
LCM(619,601) = 372019
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
