Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 280,690 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 280,690 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 724,186
2 | 724, 186 |
362, 93 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 362 x 93 = 67332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/67332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 280/724,690/186 is 10/67332
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 724,186 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(724,186) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(724,186) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(724,186) = ( 724 × 186 ) / 2
LCM(724,186) = 134664 / 2
LCM(724,186) = 67332
