Lets's calculate GCF of 370,2021
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 370
:1,2,5,10,37,74,185,370
Now, list down the factors of 2021
:1,43,47,2021
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 370,2021 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 370,2021 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 706,778
2 | 706, 778 |
353, 389 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 353 x 389 = 274634
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/274634
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 370/706,2021/778 is 1/274634
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 706,778 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(706,778) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(706,778) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(706,778) = ( 706 × 778 ) / 2
LCM(706,778) = 549268 / 2
LCM(706,778) = 274634
