So the greatest common factor 317,482 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 518,170
2 | 518, 170 |
259, 85 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 259 x 85 = 44030
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/44030
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 317/518,482/170 is 1/44030
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 518,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(518,170) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(518,170) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(518,170) = ( 518 × 170 ) / 2
LCM(518,170) = 88060 / 2
LCM(518,170) = 44030
