Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8937,6994 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8937,6994 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 344,333
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 114552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/114552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8937/344,6994/333 is 1/114552
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 344,333 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(344,333) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(344,333) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(344,333) = ( 344 × 333 ) / 1
LCM(344,333) = 114552 / 1
LCM(344,333) = 114552
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
