Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6718,3992 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6718,3992 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 568,338
2 | 568, 338 |
284, 169 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 284 x 169 = 95992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/95992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6718/568,3992/338 is 2/95992
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 568,338 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(568,338) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(568,338) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(568,338) = ( 568 × 338 ) / 2
LCM(568,338) = 191984 / 2
LCM(568,338) = 95992
