Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5804,3520 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5804,3520 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,297
11 | 44, 297 |
4, 27 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 4 x 27 = 1188
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1188
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5804/44,3520/297 is 4/1188
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 44,297 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,297) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(44,297) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(44,297) = ( 44 × 297 ) / 11
LCM(44,297) = 13068 / 11
LCM(44,297) = 1188
