Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8812,1914 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8812,1914 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 842,229
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 192818
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/192818
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8812/842,1914/229 is 2/192818
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 842,229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,229) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(842,229) = ( 842 × 229 ) / 1
LCM(842,229) = 192818 / 1
LCM(842,229) = 192818
