Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 666,198 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 666,198 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 295,296
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 87320
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/87320
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 666/295,198/296 is 18/87320
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 295,296 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(295,296) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(295,296) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(295,296) = ( 295 × 296 ) / 1
LCM(295,296) = 87320 / 1
LCM(295,296) = 87320
