Lets's calculate GCF of 505,2121
101 | 505, 2121 |
5, 21 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 101 = 101
Now, list down the factors of 505
:1,5,101,505
Now, list down the factors of 2121
:1,3,7,21,101,303,707,2121
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 505,2121 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 505,2121 is 101.
Lets's calculate LCM of 903,794
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 716982
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 101/716982
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 505/903,2121/794 is 101/716982
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 903,794 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(903,794) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(903,794) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(903,794) = ( 903 × 794 ) / 1
LCM(903,794) = 716982 / 1
LCM(903,794) = 716982
