:1,5,7,11,35,55,77,385
Now, list down the factors of 104
:1,2,4,8,13,26,52,104
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 385,104 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 385,104 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,426
2 | 40, 426 |
20, 213 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 20 x 213 = 8520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 385/40,104/426 is 1/8520
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 40,426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,426) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,426) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(40,426) = ( 40 × 426 ) / 2
LCM(40,426) = 17040 / 2
LCM(40,426) = 8520
