Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7478,2209 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7478,2209 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 936,992
2 | 936, 992 |
2 | 468, 496 |
2 | 234, 248 |
117, 124 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 117 x 124 = 116064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/116064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7478/936,2209/992 is 1/116064
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 936,992 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(936,992) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(936,992) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(936,992) = ( 936 × 992 ) / 8
LCM(936,992) = 928512 / 8
LCM(936,992) = 116064
