∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 362
:1,2,181,362
Now, list down the factors of 292
:1,2,4,73,146,292
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 362,292 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 362,292 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 725,523
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 379175
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/379175
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 362/725,292/523 is 2/379175
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 725,523 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(725,523) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(725,523) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(725,523) = ( 725 × 523 ) / 1
LCM(725,523) = 379175 / 1
LCM(725,523) = 379175
