∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 421
:1,421
Now, list down the factors of 212
:1,2,4,53,106,212
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 421,212 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 421,212 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,363
3 | 24, 363 |
8, 121 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 8 x 121 = 2904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 421/24,212/363 is 1/2904
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 24,363 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,363) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,363) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(24,363) = ( 24 × 363 ) / 3
LCM(24,363) = 8712 / 3
LCM(24,363) = 2904
