Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 199,478 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 199,478 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 495,500
5 | 495, 500 |
99, 100 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 99 x 100 = 49500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/49500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 199/495,478/500 is 1/49500
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 495,500 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(495,500) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(495,500) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(495,500) = ( 495 × 500 ) / 5
LCM(495,500) = 247500 / 5
LCM(495,500) = 49500
