Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 982,993 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 982,993 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 246,400
2 | 246, 400 |
123, 200 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 123 x 200 = 49200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/49200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 982/246,993/400 is 1/49200
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 246,400 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(246,400) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(246,400) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(246,400) = ( 246 × 400 ) / 2
LCM(246,400) = 98400 / 2
LCM(246,400) = 49200
