Lets's calculate GCF of 225,747
3 | 225, 747 |
3 | 75, 249 |
25, 83 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 = 9
Now, list down the factors of 225
:1,3,5,9,15,25,45,75,225
Now, list down the factors of 747
:1,3,9,83,249,747
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 225,747 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 225,747 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 316,179
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 56564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/56564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 225/316,747/179 is 9/56564
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 316,179 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(316,179) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(316,179) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(316,179) = ( 316 × 179 ) / 1
LCM(316,179) = 56564 / 1
LCM(316,179) = 56564
