Lets's calculate GCF of 235,282
47 | 235, 282 |
5, 6 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 47 = 47
Now, list down the factors of 235
:1,5,47,235
Now, list down the factors of 282
:1,2,3,6,47,94,141,282
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 235,282 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 235,282 is 47.
Lets's calculate LCM of 406,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 110026
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 47/110026
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 235/406,282/271 is 47/110026
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 406,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(406,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(406,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(406,271) = ( 406 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(406,271) = 110026 / 1
LCM(406,271) = 110026
