Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8858,2040 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8858,2040 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 111,440
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 48840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/48840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8858/111,2040/440 is 2/48840
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 111,440 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(111,440) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(111,440) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(111,440) = ( 111 × 440 ) / 1
LCM(111,440) = 48840 / 1
LCM(111,440) = 48840
