Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 449,6878 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 449,6878 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 328,296
2 | 328, 296 |
2 | 164, 148 |
2 | 82, 74 |
41, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 41 x 37 = 12136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 449/328,6878/296 is 1/12136
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 328,296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(328,296) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(328,296) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(328,296) = ( 328 × 296 ) / 8
LCM(328,296) = 97088 / 8
LCM(328,296) = 12136
