Now, list down the factors of 488
:1,2,4,8,61,122,244,488
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 199,488 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 199,488 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 253,619
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 156607
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/156607
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 199/253,488/619 is 1/156607
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 253,619 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,619) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,619) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,619) = ( 253 × 619 ) / 1
LCM(253,619) = 156607 / 1
LCM(253,619) = 156607
