1,3,2777,8331
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4392,8331 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4392,8331 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 33,308
11 | 33, 308 |
3, 28 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 3 x 28 = 924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4392/33,8331/308 is 3/924
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 33,308 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(33,308) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(33,308) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(33,308) = ( 33 × 308 ) / 11
LCM(33,308) = 10164 / 11
LCM(33,308) = 924
