:1,617
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 416,617 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 416,617 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 372,374
2 | 372, 374 |
186, 187 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 186 x 187 = 69564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/69564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 416/372,617/374 is 1/69564
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 372,374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(372,374) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(372,374) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(372,374) = ( 372 × 374 ) / 2
LCM(372,374) = 139128 / 2
LCM(372,374) = 69564
