Lets's calculate GCF of 290,705
5 | 290, 705 |
58, 141 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 290
:1,2,5,10,29,58,145,290
Now, list down the factors of 705
:1,3,5,15,47,141,235,705
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 290,705 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 290,705 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 687,512
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 351744
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/351744
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 290/687,705/512 is 5/351744
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 687,512 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(687,512) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(687,512) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(687,512) = ( 687 × 512 ) / 1
LCM(687,512) = 351744 / 1
LCM(687,512) = 351744
