Lets's calculate GCF of 220,776
2 | 220, 776 |
2 | 110, 388 |
55, 194 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Now, list down the factors of 220
:1,2,4,5,10,11,20,22,44,55,110,220
Now, list down the factors of 776
:1,2,4,8,97,194,388,776
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 220,776 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 220,776 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,175
7 | 49, 175 |
7, 25 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 7 x 25 = 1225
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1225
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 220/49,776/175 is 4/1225
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 49,175 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,175) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,175) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(49,175) = ( 49 × 175 ) / 7
LCM(49,175) = 8575 / 7
LCM(49,175) = 1225
