Now, list down the factors of 272
:1,2,4,8,16,17,34,68,136,272
Now, list down the factors of 1129
:1,1129
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 272,1129 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 272,1129 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,535
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 375035
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/375035
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 272/701,1129/535 is 1/375035
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 701,535 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,535) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(701,535) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(701,535) = ( 701 × 535 ) / 1
LCM(701,535) = 375035 / 1
LCM(701,535) = 375035
