Lets's calculate GCF of 453,408
3 | 453, 408 |
151, 136 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 453
:1,3,151,453
Now, list down the factors of 408
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,17,24,34,51,68,102,136,204,408
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 453,408 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 453,408 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 150,960
2 | 150, 960 |
3 | 75, 480 |
5 | 25, 160 |
5, 32 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 32 = 4800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/4800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 453/150,408/960 is 3/4800
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 150,960 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(150,960) = 30
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(150,960) x common factors =30 x 1 = 30
LCM(150,960) = ( 150 × 960 ) / 30
LCM(150,960) = 144000 / 30
LCM(150,960) = 4800
