Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 334,985 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 334,985 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 381,656
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 249936
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/249936
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 334/381,985/656 is 1/249936
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 381,656 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(381,656) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(381,656) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(381,656) = ( 381 × 656 ) / 1
LCM(381,656) = 249936 / 1
LCM(381,656) = 249936
