Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3446,8006 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3446,8006 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 386,400
2 | 386, 400 |
193, 200 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 193 x 200 = 77200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/77200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3446/386,8006/400 is 2/77200
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 386,400 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(386,400) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(386,400) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(386,400) = ( 386 × 400 ) / 2
LCM(386,400) = 154400 / 2
LCM(386,400) = 77200
