Lets's calculate GCF of 253,526
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 253
:1,11,23,253
Now, list down the factors of 526
:1,2,263,526
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 253,526 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 253,526 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 25,834
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 253/25,526/834 is 1/20850
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 25,834 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,834) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(25,834) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(25,834) = ( 25 × 834 ) / 1
LCM(25,834) = 20850 / 1
LCM(25,834) = 20850
