Lets's calculate GCF of 339,678
3 | 339, 678 |
113 | 113, 226 |
1, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 113 = 339
Now, list down the factors of 339
:1,3,113,339
Now, list down the factors of 678
:1,2,3,6,113,226,339,678
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 339,678 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 339,678 is 339.
Lets's calculate LCM of 644,431
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 277564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 339/277564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 339/644,678/431 is 339/277564
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 644,431 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(644,431) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(644,431) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(644,431) = ( 644 × 431 ) / 1
LCM(644,431) = 277564 / 1
LCM(644,431) = 277564
