Lets's calculate GCF of 410,172
2 | 410, 172 |
205, 86 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 410
:1,2,5,10,41,82,205,410
Now, list down the factors of 172
:1,2,4,43,86,172
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 410,172 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 410,172 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,1915
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 189585
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/189585
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 410/99,172/1915 is 2/189585
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 99,1915 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,1915) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,1915) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,1915) = ( 99 × 1915 ) / 1
LCM(99,1915) = 189585 / 1
LCM(99,1915) = 189585
