:1,521
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 432,521 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 432,521 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 400,806
2 | 400, 806 |
200, 403 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 200 x 403 = 161200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/161200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 432/400,521/806 is 1/161200
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 400,806 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(400,806) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(400,806) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(400,806) = ( 400 × 806 ) / 2
LCM(400,806) = 322400 / 2
LCM(400,806) = 161200
