Now, list down the factors of 568
:1,2,4,8,71,142,284,568
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 227,568 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 227,568 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 559,282
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 157638
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/157638
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 227/559,568/282 is 1/157638
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 559,282 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(559,282) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(559,282) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(559,282) = ( 559 × 282 ) / 1
LCM(559,282) = 157638 / 1
LCM(559,282) = 157638
