Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 779,498 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 779,498 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,446
2 | 14, 446 |
7, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 223 = 3122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 779/14,498/446 is 1/3122
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 14,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,446) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,446) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(14,446) = ( 14 × 446 ) / 2
LCM(14,446) = 6244 / 2
LCM(14,446) = 3122
