1,389
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 879,389 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 879,389 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9218,2304
2 | 9218, 2304 |
4609, 1152 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 4609 x 1152 = 10619136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10619136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 879/9218,389/2304 is 1/10619136
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 9218,2304 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9218,2304) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9218,2304) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(9218,2304) = ( 9218 × 2304 ) / 2
LCM(9218,2304) = 21238272 / 2
LCM(9218,2304) = 10619136
