Now, list down the factors of 430
:1,2,5,10,43,86,215,430
Now, list down the factors of 336
:1,2,3,4,6,7,8,12,14,16,21,24,28,42,48,56,84,112,168,336
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 430,336 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 430,336 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 851,488
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 415288
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/415288
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 430/851,336/488 is 2/415288
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 851,488 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,488) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(851,488) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(851,488) = ( 851 × 488 ) / 1
LCM(851,488) = 415288 / 1
LCM(851,488) = 415288
