Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4150,3072 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4150,3072 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,438
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21462
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/21462
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4150/49,3072/438 is 2/21462
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 49,438 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,438) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,438) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,438) = ( 49 × 438 ) / 1
LCM(49,438) = 21462 / 1
LCM(49,438) = 21462
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
