Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 582,212 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 582,212 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 58,8340
2 | 58, 8340 |
29, 4170 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 4170 = 241860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/241860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 582/58,212/8340 is 2/241860
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 58,8340 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(58,8340) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(58,8340) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(58,8340) = ( 58 × 8340 ) / 2
LCM(58,8340) = 483720 / 2
LCM(58,8340) = 241860
