∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 485
:1,5,97,485
Now, list down the factors of 473
:1,11,43,473
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 485,473 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 485,473 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,254
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6858
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6858
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 485/27,473/254 is 1/6858
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 27,254 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,254) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(27,254) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(27,254) = ( 27 × 254 ) / 1
LCM(27,254) = 6858 / 1
LCM(27,254) = 6858
