Lets's calculate GCF of 501,771
3 | 501, 771 |
167, 257 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 501
:1,3,167,501
Now, list down the factors of 771
:1,3,257,771
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 501,771 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 501,771 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 747,390
3 | 747, 390 |
249, 130 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 249 x 130 = 97110
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/97110
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 501/747,771/390 is 3/97110
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 747,390 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(747,390) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(747,390) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(747,390) = ( 747 × 390 ) / 3
LCM(747,390) = 291330 / 3
LCM(747,390) = 97110
