Lets's calculate GCF of 386,772
2 | 386, 772 |
193 | 193, 386 |
1, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 193 = 386
Now, list down the factors of 386
:1,2,193,386
Now, list down the factors of 772
:1,2,4,193,386,772
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 386,772 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 386,772 is 386.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,528
2 | 34, 528 |
17, 264 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 17 x 264 = 8976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 386/8976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 386/34,772/528 is 386/8976
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 34,528 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,528) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,528) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(34,528) = ( 34 × 528 ) / 2
LCM(34,528) = 17952 / 2
LCM(34,528) = 8976
