Now, list down the factors of 518
:1,2,7,14,37,74,259,518
Now, list down the factors of 233
:1,233
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 518,233 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 518,233 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 905,552
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 499560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/499560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 518/905,233/552 is 1/499560
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 905,552 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(905,552) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(905,552) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(905,552) = ( 905 × 552 ) / 1
LCM(905,552) = 499560 / 1
LCM(905,552) = 499560
