Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 634,886 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 634,886 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 278,330
2 | 278, 330 |
139, 165 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 139 x 165 = 45870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/45870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 634/278,886/330 is 2/45870
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 278,330 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(278,330) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(278,330) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(278,330) = ( 278 × 330 ) / 2
LCM(278,330) = 91740 / 2
LCM(278,330) = 45870
