Lets's calculate GCF of 214,500
2 | 214, 500 |
107, 250 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 214
:1,2,107,214
Now, list down the factors of 500
:1,2,4,5,10,20,25,50,100,125,250,500
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 214,500 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 214,500 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 578,827
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 478006
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/478006
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 214/578,500/827 is 2/478006
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 578,827 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,827) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,827) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(578,827) = ( 578 × 827 ) / 1
LCM(578,827) = 478006 / 1
LCM(578,827) = 478006
