Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 822,2982 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 822,2982 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 334,985
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 328990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/328990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 822/334,2982/985 is 6/328990
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 334,985 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,985) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,985) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(334,985) = ( 334 × 985 ) / 1
LCM(334,985) = 328990 / 1
LCM(334,985) = 328990
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
