:1,443
Now, list down the factors of 392
:1,2,4,7,8,14,28,49,56,98,196,392
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 443,392 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 443,392 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 972,227
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 220644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/220644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 443/972,392/227 is 1/220644
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 972,227 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,227) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,227) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(972,227) = ( 972 × 227 ) / 1
LCM(972,227) = 220644 / 1
LCM(972,227) = 220644
