Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2227,3603 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2227,3603 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 656,351
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 230256
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/230256
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2227/656,3603/351 is 1/230256
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 656,351 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(656,351) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(656,351) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(656,351) = ( 656 × 351 ) / 1
LCM(656,351) = 230256 / 1
LCM(656,351) = 230256
