Lets's calculate GCF of 310,238
2 | 310, 238 |
155, 119 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 310
:1,2,5,10,31,62,155,310
Now, list down the factors of 238
:1,2,7,14,17,34,119,238
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 310,238 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 310,238 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 482,851
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 410182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/410182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 310/482,238/851 is 2/410182
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 482,851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(482,851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(482,851) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(482,851) = ( 482 × 851 ) / 1
LCM(482,851) = 410182 / 1
LCM(482,851) = 410182
