Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4371,4662 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4371,4662 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,223
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4371/24,4662/223 is 3/5352
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 24,223 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,223) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,223) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(24,223) = ( 24 × 223 ) / 1
LCM(24,223) = 5352 / 1
LCM(24,223) = 5352
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
