Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1847,2317 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1847,2317 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 258,298
2 | 258, 298 |
129, 149 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 129 x 149 = 38442
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/38442
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1847/258,2317/298 is 1/38442
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 258,298 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(258,298) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(258,298) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(258,298) = ( 258 × 298 ) / 2
LCM(258,298) = 76884 / 2
LCM(258,298) = 38442
