Now, list down the factors of 284
:1,2,4,71,142,284
Now, list down the factors of 366
:1,2,3,6,61,122,183,366
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 284,366 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 284,366 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 395,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 192365
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/192365
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 284/395,366/487 is 2/192365
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 395,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(395,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(395,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(395,487) = ( 395 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(395,487) = 192365 / 1
LCM(395,487) = 192365
