We found the factors 630,636 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 630,636 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 438,668
2 | 438, 668 |
219, 334 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 219 x 334 = 146292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/146292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 630/438,636/668 is 6/146292
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 438,668 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(438,668) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(438,668) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(438,668) = ( 438 × 668 ) / 2
LCM(438,668) = 292584 / 2
LCM(438,668) = 146292
