∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 317
:1,317
Now, list down the factors of 452
:1,2,4,113,226,452
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 317,452 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 317,452 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,402
3 | 21, 402 |
7, 134 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 134 = 2814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 317/21,452/402 is 1/2814
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 21,402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,402) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,402) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(21,402) = ( 21 × 402 ) / 3
LCM(21,402) = 8442 / 3
LCM(21,402) = 2814
