:1,293
Now, list down the factors of 244
:1,2,4,61,122,244
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 293,244 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 293,244 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 801,846
3 | 801, 846 |
3 | 267, 282 |
89, 94 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 89 x 94 = 75294
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/75294
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 293/801,244/846 is 1/75294
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 801,846 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(801,846) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(801,846) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(801,846) = ( 801 × 846 ) / 9
LCM(801,846) = 677646 / 9
LCM(801,846) = 75294
