Lets's calculate GCF of 523,120
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 523
:1,523
Now, list down the factors of 120
:1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,20,24,30,40,60,120
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 523,120 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 523,120 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 404,707
101 | 404, 707 |
4, 7 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 101 x 4 x 7 = 2828
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 523/404,120/707 is 1/2828
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 404,707 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(404,707) = 101
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(404,707) x common factors =101 x 1 = 101
LCM(404,707) = ( 404 × 707 ) / 101
LCM(404,707) = 285628 / 101
LCM(404,707) = 2828
