Lets's calculate GCF of 264,220
2 | 264, 220 |
2 | 132, 110 |
11 | 66, 55 |
6, 5 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 11 = 44
Now, list down the factors of 264
:1,2,3,4,6,8,11,12,22,24,33,44,66,88,132,264
Now, list down the factors of 220
:1,2,4,5,10,11,20,22,44,55,110,220
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 264,220 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 264,220 is 44.
Lets's calculate LCM of 287,464
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133168
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 44/133168
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 264/287,220/464 is 44/133168
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 287,464 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,464) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(287,464) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(287,464) = ( 287 × 464 ) / 1
LCM(287,464) = 133168 / 1
LCM(287,464) = 133168
