Now, list down the factors of 2770
:1,2,5,10,277,554,1385,2770
Now, list down the factors of 2208
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,23,24,32,46,48,69,92,96,138,184,276,368,552,736,1104,2208
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2770,2208 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2770,2208 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 208,724
2 | 208, 724 |
2 | 104, 362 |
52, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 52 x 181 = 37648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/37648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2770/208,2208/724 is 2/37648
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 208,724 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(208,724) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(208,724) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(208,724) = ( 208 × 724 ) / 4
LCM(208,724) = 150592 / 4
LCM(208,724) = 37648
