We found the factors 334,905 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 334,905 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 424,144
2 | 424, 144 |
2 | 212, 72 |
2 | 106, 36 |
53, 18 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 53 x 18 = 7632
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7632
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 334/424,905/144 is 1/7632
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 424,144 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(424,144) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(424,144) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(424,144) = ( 424 × 144 ) / 8
LCM(424,144) = 61056 / 8
LCM(424,144) = 7632
