41 | 451, 164 |
11, 4 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 41 = 41
Now, list down the factors of 451
:1,11,41,451
Now, list down the factors of 164
:1,2,4,41,82,164
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 451,164 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 451,164 is 41.
Lets's calculate LCM of 584,284
2 | 584, 284 |
2 | 292, 142 |
146, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 146 x 71 = 41464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/41464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 451/584,164/284 is 41/41464
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 584,284 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(584,284) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(584,284) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(584,284) = ( 584 × 284 ) / 4
LCM(584,284) = 165856 / 4
LCM(584,284) = 41464
