Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 384,934 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 384,934 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 431,256
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 110336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/110336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 384/431,934/256 is 2/110336
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 431,256 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,256) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,256) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,256) = ( 431 × 256 ) / 1
LCM(431,256) = 110336 / 1
LCM(431,256) = 110336
