Now, list down the factors of 5224
:1,2,4,8,653,1306,2612,5224
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5171,5224 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5171,5224 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 232,1097
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 254504
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/254504
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5171/232,5224/1097 is 1/254504
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 232,1097 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(232,1097) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(232,1097) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(232,1097) = ( 232 × 1097 ) / 1
LCM(232,1097) = 254504 / 1
LCM(232,1097) = 254504
