:1,2,113,226
Now, list down the factors of 213
:1,3,71,213
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 226,213 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 226,213 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 897,476
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 426972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/426972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 226/897,213/476 is 1/426972
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 897,476 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,476) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,476) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(897,476) = ( 897 × 476 ) / 1
LCM(897,476) = 426972 / 1
LCM(897,476) = 426972
