Now, list down the factors of 319
:1,11,29,319
Now, list down the factors of 586
:1,2,293,586
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 319,586 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 319,586 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,132
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9636
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9636
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 319/73,586/132 is 1/9636
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 73,132 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,132) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,132) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,132) = ( 73 × 132 ) / 1
LCM(73,132) = 9636 / 1
LCM(73,132) = 9636
