1,2,1213,2426
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 442,2426 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 442,2426 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 719,630
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 452970
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/452970
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 442/719,2426/630 is 2/452970
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 719,630 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(719,630) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(719,630) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(719,630) = ( 719 × 630 ) / 1
LCM(719,630) = 452970 / 1
LCM(719,630) = 452970
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
