To find the highest common factor of 14,49, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 14 are 1, 2, 7, 14
The factors of 49 are 1, 7, 49
The HCF of 14,49 is 7.
Lets's calculate GCF of 14,49
7 | 14, 49 |
2, 7 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7
Lets's calculate LCM of 556,9730
2 | 556, 9730 |
139 | 278, 4865 |
2, 35 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 139 x 2 x 35 = 19460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/19460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 14/556,49/9730 is 7/19460
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 556,9730 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(556,9730) = 278
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(556,9730) x common factors =278 x 1 = 278
LCM(556,9730) = ( 556 × 9730 ) / 278
LCM(556,9730) = 5409880 / 278
LCM(556,9730) = 19460
