Lets's calculate GCF of 2049,1422
3 | 2049, 1422 |
683, 474 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 2049
:1,3,683,2049
Now, list down the factors of 1422
:1,2,3,6,9,18,79,158,237,474,711,1422
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2049,1422 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2049,1422 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 447,280
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 125160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/125160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2049/447,1422/280 is 3/125160
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 447,280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(447,280) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(447,280) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(447,280) = ( 447 × 280 ) / 1
LCM(447,280) = 125160 / 1
LCM(447,280) = 125160
