Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5826,4230 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5826,4230 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 497,232
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 115304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/115304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5826/497,4230/232 is 6/115304
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 497,232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(497,232) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(497,232) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(497,232) = ( 497 × 232 ) / 1
LCM(497,232) = 115304 / 1
LCM(497,232) = 115304
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
