Lets's calculate GCF of 454,786
2 | 454, 786 |
227, 393 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 454
:1,2,227,454
Now, list down the factors of 786
:1,2,3,6,131,262,393,786
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 454,786 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 454,786 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 254,955
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 242570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/242570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 454/254,786/955 is 2/242570
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 254,955 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(254,955) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(254,955) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(254,955) = ( 254 × 955 ) / 1
LCM(254,955) = 242570 / 1
LCM(254,955) = 242570
