Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 275,501 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 275,501 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 56,426
2 | 56, 426 |
28, 213 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 28 x 213 = 11928
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11928
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 275/56,501/426 is 1/11928
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 56,426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(56,426) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(56,426) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(56,426) = ( 56 × 426 ) / 2
LCM(56,426) = 23856 / 2
LCM(56,426) = 11928
