Lets's calculate GCF of 465,899
31 | 465, 899 |
15, 29 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 31 = 31
Now, list down the factors of 465
:1,3,5,15,31,93,155,465
Now, list down the factors of 899
:1,29,31,899
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 465,899 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 465,899 is 31.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,352
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/15840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 465/45,899/352 is 31/15840
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 45,352 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,352) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,352) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(45,352) = ( 45 × 352 ) / 1
LCM(45,352) = 15840 / 1
LCM(45,352) = 15840
