Lets's calculate GCF of 232,685
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 232
:1,2,4,8,29,58,116,232
Now, list down the factors of 685
:1,5,137,685
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 232,685 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 232,685 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 101,209
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21109
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21109
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 232/101,685/209 is 1/21109
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 101,209 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(101,209) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(101,209) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(101,209) = ( 101 × 209 ) / 1
LCM(101,209) = 21109 / 1
LCM(101,209) = 21109
