Lets's calculate GCF of 414,138
2 | 414, 138 |
3 | 207, 69 |
23 | 23, 69 |
1, 3 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 23 = 138
Now, list down the factors of 414
:1,2,3,6,9,18,23,46,69,138,207,414
Now, list down the factors of 138
:1,2,3,6,23,46,69,138
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 414,138 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 414,138 is 138.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,4978
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 54758
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 138/54758
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 414/11,138/4978 is 138/54758
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 11,4978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,4978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,4978) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,4978) = ( 11 × 4978 ) / 1
LCM(11,4978) = 54758 / 1
LCM(11,4978) = 54758
