:1,2,5,10,31,62,155,310
Now, list down the factors of 161
:1,7,23,161
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 310,161 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 310,161 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 662,589
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 389918
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/389918
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 310/662,161/589 is 1/389918
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 662,589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(662,589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(662,589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(662,589) = ( 662 × 589 ) / 1
LCM(662,589) = 389918 / 1
LCM(662,589) = 389918
