Now, list down the factors of 402
:1,2,3,6,67,134,201,402
Now, list down the factors of 5051
:1,5051
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 402,5051 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 402,5051 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 959,823
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 789257
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/789257
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 402/959,5051/823 is 1/789257
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 959,823 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,823) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,823) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,823) = ( 959 × 823 ) / 1
LCM(959,823) = 789257 / 1
LCM(959,823) = 789257
