Lets's calculate GCF of 423,800
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 423
:1,3,9,47,141,423
Now, list down the factors of 800
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,25,32,40,50,80,100,160,200,400,800
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 423,800 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 423,800 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 944,422
2 | 944, 422 |
472, 211 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 472 x 211 = 199184
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/199184
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 423/944,800/422 is 1/199184
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 944,422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(944,422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(944,422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(944,422) = ( 944 × 422 ) / 2
LCM(944,422) = 398368 / 2
LCM(944,422) = 199184
