1,2,1753,3506
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8320,3506 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8320,3506 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,919
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 212289
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/212289
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8320/231,3506/919 is 2/212289
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 231,919 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,919) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,919) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(231,919) = ( 231 × 919 ) / 1
LCM(231,919) = 212289 / 1
LCM(231,919) = 212289
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
