:1,2,19,38,59,118,1121,2242
Now, list down the factors of 8220
:1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,60,137,274,411,548,685,822,1370,1644,2055,2740,4110,8220
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2242,8220 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2242,8220 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 376,454
2 | 376, 454 |
188, 227 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 188 x 227 = 85352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/85352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2242/376,8220/454 is 2/85352
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 376,454 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(376,454) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(376,454) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(376,454) = ( 376 × 454 ) / 2
LCM(376,454) = 170704 / 2
LCM(376,454) = 85352
