Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4434,1470 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4434,1470 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 878,2555
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2243290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/2243290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4434/878,1470/2555 is 6/2243290
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 878,2555 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(878,2555) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(878,2555) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(878,2555) = ( 878 × 2555 ) / 1
LCM(878,2555) = 2243290 / 1
LCM(878,2555) = 2243290
