Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 382,386 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 382,386 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 504,902
2 | 504, 902 |
252, 451 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 252 x 451 = 227304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/227304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 382/504,386/902 is 2/227304
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 504,902 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(504,902) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(504,902) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(504,902) = ( 504 × 902 ) / 2
LCM(504,902) = 454608 / 2
LCM(504,902) = 227304
