:1,509
Now, list down the factors of 551
:1,19,29,551
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 509,551 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 509,551 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,134
2 | 20, 134 |
10, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 10 x 67 = 1340
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1340
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 509/20,551/134 is 1/1340
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 20,134 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,134) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,134) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(20,134) = ( 20 × 134 ) / 2
LCM(20,134) = 2680 / 2
LCM(20,134) = 1340
