We found the factors 643,2256 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 643,2256 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 980,794
2 | 980, 794 |
490, 397 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 490 x 397 = 389060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/389060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 643/980,2256/794 is 1/389060
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 980,794 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(980,794) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(980,794) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(980,794) = ( 980 × 794 ) / 2
LCM(980,794) = 778120 / 2
LCM(980,794) = 389060
