Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 268,437 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 268,437 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 716,266
2 | 716, 266 |
358, 133 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 358 x 133 = 95228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/95228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 268/716,437/266 is 1/95228
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 716,266 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(716,266) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(716,266) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(716,266) = ( 716 × 266 ) / 2
LCM(716,266) = 190456 / 2
LCM(716,266) = 95228
