Lets's calculate GCF of 330,261
3 | 330, 261 |
110, 87 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 330
:1,2,3,5,6,10,11,15,22,30,33,55,66,110,165,330
Now, list down the factors of 261
:1,3,9,29,87,261
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 330,261 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 330,261 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 347,994
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 344918
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/344918
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 330/347,261/994 is 3/344918
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 347,994 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(347,994) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(347,994) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(347,994) = ( 347 × 994 ) / 1
LCM(347,994) = 344918 / 1
LCM(347,994) = 344918
