Lets's calculate GCF of 506,920
2 | 506, 920 |
23 | 253, 460 |
11, 20 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 23 = 46
Now, list down the factors of 506
:1,2,11,22,23,46,253,506
Now, list down the factors of 920
:1,2,4,5,8,10,20,23,40,46,92,115,184,230,460,920
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 506,920 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 506,920 is 46.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,671
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 30866
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 46/30866
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 506/46,920/671 is 46/30866
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 46,671 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,671) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,671) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(46,671) = ( 46 × 671 ) / 1
LCM(46,671) = 30866 / 1
LCM(46,671) = 30866
