Lets's calculate GCF of 355,717
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 355
:1,5,71,355
Now, list down the factors of 717
:1,3,239,717
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 355,717 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 355,717 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,544
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 355/41,717/544 is 1/22304
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 41,544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,544) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,544) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,544) = ( 41 × 544 ) / 1
LCM(41,544) = 22304 / 1
LCM(41,544) = 22304
