Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 558,599 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 558,599 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 226,206
2 | 226, 206 |
113, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 113 x 103 = 23278
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23278
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 558/226,599/206 is 1/23278
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 226,206 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(226,206) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(226,206) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(226,206) = ( 226 × 206 ) / 2
LCM(226,206) = 46556 / 2
LCM(226,206) = 23278
