Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 880,2362 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 880,2362 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 998,228
2 | 998, 228 |
499, 114 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 499 x 114 = 113772
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/113772
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 880/998,2362/228 is 2/113772
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 998,228 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(998,228) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(998,228) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(998,228) = ( 998 × 228 ) / 2
LCM(998,228) = 227544 / 2
LCM(998,228) = 113772
