Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 545,7391 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 545,7391 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 938,382
2 | 938, 382 |
469, 191 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 469 x 191 = 179158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/179158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 545/938,7391/382 is 1/179158
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 938,382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(938,382) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(938,382) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(938,382) = ( 938 × 382 ) / 2
LCM(938,382) = 358316 / 2
LCM(938,382) = 179158
