Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4523,4266 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4523,4266 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 338,512
2 | 338, 512 |
169, 256 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 169 x 256 = 86528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/86528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4523/338,4266/512 is 1/86528
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 338,512 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(338,512) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(338,512) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(338,512) = ( 338 × 512 ) / 2
LCM(338,512) = 173056 / 2
LCM(338,512) = 86528
