:1,5,41,205
Now, list down the factors of 549
:1,3,9,61,183,549
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 205,549 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 205,549 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 254,200
2 | 254, 200 |
127, 100 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 127 x 100 = 25400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/25400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 205/254,549/200 is 1/25400
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 254,200 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(254,200) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(254,200) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(254,200) = ( 254 × 200 ) / 2
LCM(254,200) = 50800 / 2
LCM(254,200) = 25400
