∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 263
:1,263
Now, list down the factors of 293
:1,293
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 263,293 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 263,293 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,442
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23426
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23426
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 263/53,293/442 is 1/23426
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 53,442 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,442) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,442) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,442) = ( 53 × 442 ) / 1
LCM(53,442) = 23426 / 1
LCM(53,442) = 23426
