Lets's calculate GCF of 112,504
2 | 112, 504 |
2 | 56, 252 |
2 | 28, 126 |
7 | 14, 63 |
2, 9 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 = 56
Now, list down the factors of 112
:1,2,4,7,8,14,16,28,56,112
Now, list down the factors of 504
:1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,12,14,18,21,24,28,36,42,56,63,72,84,126,168,252,504
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 112,504 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 112,504 is 56.
Lets's calculate LCM of 735,661
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 485835
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 56/485835
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 112/735,504/661 is 56/485835
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 735,661 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(735,661) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(735,661) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(735,661) = ( 735 × 661 ) / 1
LCM(735,661) = 485835 / 1
LCM(735,661) = 485835
