Now, list down the factors of 359
:1,359
Now, list down the factors of 846
:1,2,3,6,9,18,47,94,141,282,423,846
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 359,846 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 359,846 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,845
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9295
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9295
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 359/11,846/845 is 1/9295
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 11,845 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,845) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,845) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,845) = ( 11 × 845 ) / 1
LCM(11,845) = 9295 / 1
LCM(11,845) = 9295
