Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 623,158 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 623,158 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 346,406
2 | 346, 406 |
173, 203 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 173 x 203 = 70238
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/70238
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 623/346,158/406 is 1/70238
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 346,406 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(346,406) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(346,406) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(346,406) = ( 346 × 406 ) / 2
LCM(346,406) = 140476 / 2
LCM(346,406) = 70238
