Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 338,871 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 338,871 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,598
2 | 76, 598 |
38, 299 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 38 x 299 = 22724
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/22724
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 338/76,871/598 is 13/22724
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 76,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,598) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(76,598) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(76,598) = ( 76 × 598 ) / 2
LCM(76,598) = 45448 / 2
LCM(76,598) = 22724
