Lets's calculate GCF of 365,950
5 | 365, 950 |
73, 190 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 365
:1,5,73,365
Now, list down the factors of 950
:1,2,5,10,19,25,38,50,95,190,475,950
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 365,950 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 365,950 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 174,472
2 | 174, 472 |
87, 236 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 87 x 236 = 41064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/41064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 365/174,950/472 is 5/41064
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 174,472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(174,472) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(174,472) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(174,472) = ( 174 × 472 ) / 2
LCM(174,472) = 82128 / 2
LCM(174,472) = 41064
