So the greatest common factor 497,331 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 512,752
2 | 512, 752 |
2 | 256, 376 |
2 | 128, 188 |
2 | 64, 94 |
32, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 32 x 47 = 24064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 497/512,331/752 is 1/24064
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 512,752 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(512,752) = 16
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(512,752) x common factors =16 x 1 = 16
LCM(512,752) = ( 512 × 752 ) / 16
LCM(512,752) = 385024 / 16
LCM(512,752) = 24064
