:1,3,107,321
Now, list down the factors of 673
:1,673
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 321,673 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 321,673 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,562
2 | 40, 562 |
20, 281 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 20 x 281 = 11240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 321/40,673/562 is 1/11240
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 40,562 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,562) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,562) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(40,562) = ( 40 × 562 ) / 2
LCM(40,562) = 22480 / 2
LCM(40,562) = 11240
