5 | 460, 115 |
23 | 92, 23 |
4, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 x 23 = 115
Now, list down the factors of 460
:1,2,4,5,10,20,23,46,92,115,230,460
Now, list down the factors of 115
:1,5,23,115
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 460,115 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 460,115 is 115.
Lets's calculate LCM of 326,163
163 | 326, 163 |
2, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 163 x 2 x 1 = 326
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 115/326
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 460/326,115/163 is 115/326
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 326,163 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(326,163) = 163
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(326,163) x common factors =163 x 1 = 163
LCM(326,163) = ( 326 × 163 ) / 163
LCM(326,163) = 53138 / 163
LCM(326,163) = 326
