Now, list down the factors of 425
:1,5,17,25,85,425
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 481,425 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 481,425 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 177,172
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 30444
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30444
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 481/177,425/172 is 1/30444
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 177,172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(177,172) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(177,172) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(177,172) = ( 177 × 172 ) / 1
LCM(177,172) = 30444 / 1
LCM(177,172) = 30444
