Now, list down the factors of 257
:1,257
Now, list down the factors of 364
:1,2,4,7,13,14,26,28,52,91,182,364
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 257,364 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 257,364 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 122,617
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75274
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/75274
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 257/122,364/617 is 1/75274
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 122,617 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(122,617) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(122,617) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(122,617) = ( 122 × 617 ) / 1
LCM(122,617) = 75274 / 1
LCM(122,617) = 75274
