Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 544,918 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 544,918 is 34.
Lets's calculate LCM of 423,848
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 358704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 34/358704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 544/423,918/848 is 34/358704
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 423,848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(423,848) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(423,848) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(423,848) = ( 423 × 848 ) / 1
LCM(423,848) = 358704 / 1
LCM(423,848) = 358704
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
