Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 687,950 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 687,950 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 4434,8560
2 | 4434, 8560 |
2217, 4280 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2217 x 4280 = 18977520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18977520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 687/4434,950/8560 is 1/18977520
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 4434,8560 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(4434,8560) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(4434,8560) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(4434,8560) = ( 4434 × 8560 ) / 2
LCM(4434,8560) = 37955040 / 2
LCM(4434,8560) = 18977520
