Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8304,6836 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8304,6836 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 359,1150
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 412850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/412850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8304/359,6836/1150 is 4/412850
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 359,1150 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(359,1150) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(359,1150) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(359,1150) = ( 359 × 1150 ) / 1
LCM(359,1150) = 412850 / 1
LCM(359,1150) = 412850
