Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6038,7380 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6038,7380 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 309,872
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 269448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/269448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6038/309,7380/872 is 2/269448
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 309,872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(309,872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(309,872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(309,872) = ( 309 × 872 ) / 1
LCM(309,872) = 269448 / 1
LCM(309,872) = 269448
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
