Now, list down the factors of 3984
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,48,83,166,249,332,498,664,996,1328,1992,3984
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5644,3984 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5644,3984 is 332.
Lets's calculate LCM of 334,124
2 | 334, 124 |
167, 62 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 167 x 62 = 20708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 332/20708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5644/334,3984/124 is 332/20708
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 334,124 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,124) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,124) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(334,124) = ( 334 × 124 ) / 2
LCM(334,124) = 41416 / 2
LCM(334,124) = 20708
