Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 556,366 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 556,366 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,4204
2 | 88, 4204 |
2 | 44, 2102 |
22, 1051 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 22 x 1051 = 92488
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/92488
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 556/88,366/4204 is 2/92488
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 88,4204 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,4204) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,4204) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(88,4204) = ( 88 × 4204 ) / 4
LCM(88,4204) = 369952 / 4
LCM(88,4204) = 92488
