Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1563,2879 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1563,2879 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 880,454
2 | 880, 454 |
440, 227 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 440 x 227 = 199760
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/199760
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1563/880,2879/454 is 1/199760
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 880,454 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(880,454) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(880,454) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(880,454) = ( 880 × 454 ) / 2
LCM(880,454) = 399520 / 2
LCM(880,454) = 199760
