1,11,313,3443
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8440,3443 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8440,3443 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 484,461
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 223124
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/223124
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8440/484,3443/461 is 1/223124
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 484,461 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(484,461) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(484,461) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(484,461) = ( 484 × 461 ) / 1
LCM(484,461) = 223124 / 1
LCM(484,461) = 223124
