Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8321,7584 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8321,7584 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,500
2 | 44, 500 |
2 | 22, 250 |
11, 125 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 11 x 125 = 5500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8321/44,7584/500 is 1/5500
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 44,500 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,500) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(44,500) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(44,500) = ( 44 × 500 ) / 4
LCM(44,500) = 22000 / 4
LCM(44,500) = 5500
