Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 760,3952 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 760,3952 is 152.
Lets's calculate LCM of 238,387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 92106
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 152/92106
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 760/238,3952/387 is 152/92106
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 238,387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(238,387) = ( 238 × 387 ) / 1
LCM(238,387) = 92106 / 1
LCM(238,387) = 92106
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
