Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 454,168 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 454,168 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 865,368
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 318320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/318320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 454/865,168/368 is 2/318320
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 865,368 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(865,368) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(865,368) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(865,368) = ( 865 × 368 ) / 1
LCM(865,368) = 318320 / 1
LCM(865,368) = 318320
