Lets's calculate GCF of 170,574
2 | 170, 574 |
85, 287 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 170
:1,2,5,10,17,34,85,170
Now, list down the factors of 574
:1,2,7,14,41,82,287,574
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 170,574 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 170,574 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 93,586
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 54498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/54498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 170/93,574/586 is 2/54498
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 93,586 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(93,586) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(93,586) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(93,586) = ( 93 × 586 ) / 1
LCM(93,586) = 54498 / 1
LCM(93,586) = 54498
