Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4349,2236 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4349,2236 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 861,879
3 | 861, 879 |
287, 293 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 287 x 293 = 252273
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/252273
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4349/861,2236/879 is 1/252273
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 861,879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(861,879) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(861,879) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(861,879) = ( 861 × 879 ) / 3
LCM(861,879) = 756819 / 3
LCM(861,879) = 252273
