Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 488,7920 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 488,7920 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 692,379
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 262268
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/262268
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 488/692,7920/379 is 8/262268
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 692,379 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(692,379) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(692,379) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(692,379) = ( 692 × 379 ) / 1
LCM(692,379) = 262268 / 1
LCM(692,379) = 262268
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
