Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4766,3012 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4766,3012 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 389,604
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 234956
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/234956
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4766/389,3012/604 is 2/234956
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 389,604 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(389,604) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(389,604) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(389,604) = ( 389 × 604 ) / 1
LCM(389,604) = 234956 / 1
LCM(389,604) = 234956
