Lets's calculate GCF of 452,596
2 | 452, 596 |
2 | 226, 298 |
113, 149 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4
Now, list down the factors of 452
:1,2,4,113,226,452
Now, list down the factors of 596
:1,2,4,149,298,596
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 452,596 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 452,596 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,8319
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 232932
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/232932
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 452/28,596/8319 is 4/232932
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 28,8319 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,8319) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,8319) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(28,8319) = ( 28 × 8319 ) / 1
LCM(28,8319) = 232932 / 1
LCM(28,8319) = 232932
