Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 121,590 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 121,590 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 304,936
2 | 304, 936 |
2 | 152, 468 |
2 | 76, 234 |
38, 117 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 38 x 117 = 35568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/35568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 121/304,590/936 is 1/35568
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 304,936 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(304,936) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(304,936) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(304,936) = ( 304 × 936 ) / 8
LCM(304,936) = 284544 / 8
LCM(304,936) = 35568
