1,2,4,43,86,172
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 814,172 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 814,172 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 364,598
2 | 364, 598 |
13 | 182, 299 |
14, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 14 x 23 = 8372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/8372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 814/364,172/598 is 2/8372
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 364,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(364,598) = 26
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(364,598) x common factors =26 x 1 = 26
LCM(364,598) = ( 364 × 598 ) / 26
LCM(364,598) = 217672 / 26
LCM(364,598) = 8372
