Now, list down the factors of 339
:1,3,113,339
Now, list down the factors of 502
:1,2,251,502
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 339,502 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 339,502 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 602,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 241402
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/241402
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 339/602,502/401 is 1/241402
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 602,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(602,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(602,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(602,401) = ( 602 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(602,401) = 241402 / 1
LCM(602,401) = 241402
