Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 496,8818 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 496,8818 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 452,624
2 | 452, 624 |
2 | 226, 312 |
113, 156 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 113 x 156 = 70512
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/70512
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 496/452,8818/624 is 2/70512
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 452,624 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(452,624) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(452,624) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(452,624) = ( 452 × 624 ) / 4
LCM(452,624) = 282048 / 4
LCM(452,624) = 70512
