Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9377,3734 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9377,3734 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 488,906
2 | 488, 906 |
244, 453 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 244 x 453 = 221064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/221064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9377/488,3734/906 is 1/221064
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 488,906 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,906) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,906) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(488,906) = ( 488 × 906 ) / 2
LCM(488,906) = 442128 / 2
LCM(488,906) = 221064
