Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4879,7738 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4879,7738 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 498,353
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 175794
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/175794
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4879/498,7738/353 is 1/175794
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 498,353 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(498,353) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(498,353) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(498,353) = ( 498 × 353 ) / 1
LCM(498,353) = 175794 / 1
LCM(498,353) = 175794
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
