Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8500,3386 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8500,3386 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 554,8332
2 | 554, 8332 |
277, 4166 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 277 x 4166 = 2307964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2307964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8500/554,3386/8332 is 2/2307964
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 554,8332 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(554,8332) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(554,8332) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(554,8332) = ( 554 × 8332 ) / 2
LCM(554,8332) = 4615928 / 2
LCM(554,8332) = 2307964
