Lets's calculate GCF of 220,286
2 | 220, 286 |
11 | 110, 143 |
10, 13 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 11 = 22
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 286
:1,2,11,13,22,26,143,286
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 220,286 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 220,286 is 22.
Lets's calculate LCM of 65,531
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 34515
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/34515
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 220/65,286/531 is 22/34515
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 65,531 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(65,531) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(65,531) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(65,531) = ( 65 × 531 ) / 1
LCM(65,531) = 34515 / 1
LCM(65,531) = 34515
