Lets's calculate GCF of 233,660
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 233
:1,233
Now, list down the factors of 660
:1,2,3,4,5,6,10,11,12,15,20,22,30,33,44,55,60,66,110,132,165,220,330,660
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 233,660 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 233,660 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,491
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26023
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26023
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 233/53,660/491 is 1/26023
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 53,491 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,491) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,491) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,491) = ( 53 × 491 ) / 1
LCM(53,491) = 26023 / 1
LCM(53,491) = 26023
