Lets's calculate GCF of 430,402
2 | 430, 402 |
215, 201 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 430
:1,2,5,10,43,86,215,430
Now, list down the factors of 402
:1,2,3,6,67,134,201,402
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 430,402 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 430,402 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 93,531
3 | 93, 531 |
31, 177 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 31 x 177 = 16461
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/16461
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 430/93,402/531 is 2/16461
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 93,531 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(93,531) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(93,531) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(93,531) = ( 93 × 531 ) / 3
LCM(93,531) = 49383 / 3
LCM(93,531) = 16461
