Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 535,162 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 535,162 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 846,244
2 | 846, 244 |
423, 122 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 423 x 122 = 103212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/103212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 535/846,162/244 is 1/103212
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 846,244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(846,244) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(846,244) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(846,244) = ( 846 × 244 ) / 2
LCM(846,244) = 206424 / 2
LCM(846,244) = 103212
