3 | 267, 2904 |
89, 968 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 267
:1,3,89,267
Now, list down the factors of 2904
:1,2,3,4,6,8,11,12,22,24,33,44,66,88,121,132,242,264,363,484,726,968,1452,2904
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 267,2904 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 267,2904 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 492,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/133332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 267/492,2904/271 is 3/133332
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 492,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(492,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(492,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(492,271) = ( 492 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(492,271) = 133332 / 1
LCM(492,271) = 133332
