Now, list down the factors of 670
:1,2,5,10,67,134,335,670
Now, list down the factors of 226
:1,2,113,226
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 670,226 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 670,226 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 184,879
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 161736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/161736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 670/184,226/879 is 2/161736
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 184,879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(184,879) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(184,879) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(184,879) = ( 184 × 879 ) / 1
LCM(184,879) = 161736 / 1
LCM(184,879) = 161736
