Lets's calculate GCF of 155,739
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 155
:1,5,31,155
Now, list down the factors of 739
:1,739
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 155,739 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 155,739 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,944
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19824
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19824
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 155/21,739/944 is 1/19824
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 21,944 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,944) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,944) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(21,944) = ( 21 × 944 ) / 1
LCM(21,944) = 19824 / 1
LCM(21,944) = 19824
