So the greatest common factor 658,686 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 180,908
2 | 180, 908 |
2 | 90, 454 |
45, 227 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 45 x 227 = 40860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/40860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 658/180,686/908 is 14/40860
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 180,908 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(180,908) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(180,908) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(180,908) = ( 180 × 908 ) / 4
LCM(180,908) = 163440 / 4
LCM(180,908) = 40860
