Lets's calculate GCF of 998,998
2 | 998, 998 |
499 | 499, 499 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 499 = 998
Now, list down the factors of 998
:1,2,499,998
Now, list down the factors of 998
:1,2,499,998
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 998,998 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 998,998 is 998.
Lets's calculate LCM of 795,377
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 299715
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 998/299715
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 998/795,998/377 is 998/299715
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 795,377 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(795,377) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(795,377) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(795,377) = ( 795 × 377 ) / 1
LCM(795,377) = 299715 / 1
LCM(795,377) = 299715
