Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 895,1088 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 895,1088 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 738,984
2 | 738, 984 |
3 | 369, 492 |
41 | 123, 164 |
3, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 41 x 3 x 4 = 2952
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2952
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 895/738,1088/984 is 1/2952
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 738,984 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(738,984) = 246
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(738,984) x common factors =246 x 1 = 246
LCM(738,984) = ( 738 × 984 ) / 246
LCM(738,984) = 726192 / 246
LCM(738,984) = 2952
