1,2,11,22,191,382,2101,4202
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4488,4202 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4488,4202 is 22.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,149
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3427
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/3427
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4488/23,4202/149 is 22/3427
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 23,149 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,149) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,149) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,149) = ( 23 × 149 ) / 1
LCM(23,149) = 3427 / 1
LCM(23,149) = 3427
