Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8924,3696 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8924,3696 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 329,855
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 281295
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/281295
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8924/329,3696/855 is 4/281295
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 329,855 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(329,855) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(329,855) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(329,855) = ( 329 × 855 ) / 1
LCM(329,855) = 281295 / 1
LCM(329,855) = 281295
