Now, list down the factors of 292
:1,2,4,73,146,292
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 467,292 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 467,292 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,249
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 467/28,292/249 is 1/6972
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 28,249 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,249) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,249) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(28,249) = ( 28 × 249 ) / 1
LCM(28,249) = 6972 / 1
LCM(28,249) = 6972
