Lets's calculate GCF of 1726,2152
2 | 1726, 2152 |
863, 1076 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 1726
:1,2,863,1726
Now, list down the factors of 2152
:1,2,4,8,269,538,1076,2152
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1726,2152 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1726,2152 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 431,365
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 157315
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/157315
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1726/431,2152/365 is 2/157315
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 431,365 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,365) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,365) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,365) = ( 431 × 365 ) / 1
LCM(431,365) = 157315 / 1
LCM(431,365) = 157315
