Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 554,1796 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 554,1796 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 885,4162
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3683370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3683370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 554/885,1796/4162 is 2/3683370
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 885,4162 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(885,4162) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(885,4162) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(885,4162) = ( 885 × 4162 ) / 1
LCM(885,4162) = 3683370 / 1
LCM(885,4162) = 3683370
