:1,5501
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2278,5501 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2278,5501 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 355,666
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 236430
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/236430
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2278/355,5501/666 is 1/236430
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 355,666 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(355,666) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(355,666) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(355,666) = ( 355 × 666 ) / 1
LCM(355,666) = 236430 / 1
LCM(355,666) = 236430
