Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3104,2908 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3104,2908 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 294,865
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 254310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/254310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3104/294,2908/865 is 4/254310
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 294,865 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(294,865) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(294,865) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(294,865) = ( 294 × 865 ) / 1
LCM(294,865) = 254310 / 1
LCM(294,865) = 254310
