Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 924,8868 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 924,8868 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 215,844
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 181460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/181460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 924/215,8868/844 is 12/181460
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 215,844 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(215,844) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(215,844) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(215,844) = ( 215 × 844 ) / 1
LCM(215,844) = 181460 / 1
LCM(215,844) = 181460
