2 | 2722, 2460 |
1361, 1230 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 2722
:1,2,1361,2722
Now, list down the factors of 2460
:1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,41,60,82,123,164,205,246,410,492,615,820,1230,2460
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2722,2460 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2722,2460 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 452,700
2 | 452, 700 |
2 | 226, 350 |
113, 175 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 113 x 175 = 79100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/79100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2722/452,2460/700 is 2/79100
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 452,700 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(452,700) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(452,700) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(452,700) = ( 452 × 700 ) / 4
LCM(452,700) = 316400 / 4
LCM(452,700) = 79100
