Lets's calculate GCF of 150,534
2 | 150, 534 |
3 | 75, 267 |
25, 89 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6
Now, list down the factors of 150
:1,2,3,5,6,10,15,25,30,50,75,150
Now, list down the factors of 534
:1,2,3,6,89,178,267,534
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 150,534 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 150,534 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 93,457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42501
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/42501
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 150/93,534/457 is 6/42501
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 93,457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(93,457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(93,457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(93,457) = ( 93 × 457 ) / 1
LCM(93,457) = 42501 / 1
LCM(93,457) = 42501
