Now, list down the factors of 447
:1,3,149,447
Now, list down the factors of 550
:1,2,5,10,11,22,25,50,55,110,275,550
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 447,550 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 447,550 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 227,971
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 220417
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/220417
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 447/227,550/971 is 1/220417
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 227,971 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(227,971) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(227,971) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(227,971) = ( 227 × 971 ) / 1
LCM(227,971) = 220417 / 1
LCM(227,971) = 220417
