Now, list down the factors of 451
:1,11,41,451
Now, list down the factors of 256
:1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 451,256 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 451,256 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,449
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 314749
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/314749
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 451/701,256/449 is 1/314749
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 701,449 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,449) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(701,449) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(701,449) = ( 701 × 449 ) / 1
LCM(701,449) = 314749 / 1
LCM(701,449) = 314749
