Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7418,7648 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7418,7648 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 556,258
2 | 556, 258 |
278, 129 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 278 x 129 = 71724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/71724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7418/556,7648/258 is 2/71724
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 556,258 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(556,258) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(556,258) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(556,258) = ( 556 × 258 ) / 2
LCM(556,258) = 143448 / 2
LCM(556,258) = 71724
