Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 926,3880 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 926,3880 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 962,556
2 | 962, 556 |
481, 278 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 481 x 278 = 267436
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/267436
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 926/962,3880/556 is 2/267436
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 962,556 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(962,556) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(962,556) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(962,556) = ( 962 × 556 ) / 2
LCM(962,556) = 534872 / 2
LCM(962,556) = 267436
