Now, list down the factors of 158
:1,2,79,158
Now, list down the factors of 471
:1,3,157,471
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 158,471 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 158,471 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 64,9557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 611648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/611648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 158/64,471/9557 is 1/611648
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 64,9557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,9557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(64,9557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(64,9557) = ( 64 × 9557 ) / 1
LCM(64,9557) = 611648 / 1
LCM(64,9557) = 611648
