We found the factors 468,8304 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 468,8304 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 800,332
2 | 800, 332 |
2 | 400, 166 |
200, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 200 x 83 = 66400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/66400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 468/800,8304/332 is 12/66400
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 800,332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(800,332) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(800,332) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(800,332) = ( 800 × 332 ) / 4
LCM(800,332) = 265600 / 4
LCM(800,332) = 66400
