Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6640,3847 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6640,3847 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 284,294
2 | 284, 294 |
142, 147 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 142 x 147 = 41748
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/41748
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6640/284,3847/294 is 1/41748
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 284,294 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,294) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,294) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(284,294) = ( 284 × 294 ) / 2
LCM(284,294) = 83496 / 2
LCM(284,294) = 41748
