1, 14 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 = 112
Now, list down the factors of 112
:1,2,4,7,8,14,16,28,56,112
Now, list down the factors of 1568
:1,2,4,7,8,14,16,28,32,49,56,98,112,196,224,392,784,1568
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 112,1568 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 112,1568 is 112.
Lets's calculate LCM of 797,5091
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4057527
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 112/4057527
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 112/797,1568/5091 is 112/4057527
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 797,5091 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(797,5091) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(797,5091) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(797,5091) = ( 797 × 5091 ) / 1
LCM(797,5091) = 4057527 / 1
LCM(797,5091) = 4057527
