Now, list down the factors of 660
:1,2,3,4,5,6,10,11,12,15,20,22,30,33,44,55,60,66,110,132,165,220,330,660
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 696,660 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 696,660 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 404,428
2 | 404, 428 |
2 | 202, 214 |
101, 107 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 101 x 107 = 43228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/43228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 696/404,660/428 is 12/43228
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 404,428 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(404,428) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(404,428) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(404,428) = ( 404 × 428 ) / 4
LCM(404,428) = 172912 / 4
LCM(404,428) = 43228
