Now, list down the factors of 501
:1,3,167,501
Now, list down the factors of 806
:1,2,13,26,31,62,403,806
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 501,806 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 501,806 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 507,478
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 242346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/242346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 501/507,806/478 is 1/242346
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 507,478 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(507,478) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(507,478) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(507,478) = ( 507 × 478 ) / 1
LCM(507,478) = 242346 / 1
LCM(507,478) = 242346
