∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 2803
:1,2803
Now, list down the factors of 1994
:1,2,997,1994
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2803,1994 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2803,1994 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 502,8900
2 | 502, 8900 |
251, 4450 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 251 x 4450 = 2233900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2233900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2803/502,1994/8900 is 1/2233900
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 502,8900 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,8900) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,8900) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(502,8900) = ( 502 × 8900 ) / 2
LCM(502,8900) = 4467800 / 2
LCM(502,8900) = 2233900
