2650, 549 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 5300
:1,2,4,5,10,20,25,50,53,100,106,212,265,530,1060,1325,2650,5300
Now, list down the factors of 1098
:1,2,3,6,9,18,61,122,183,366,549,1098
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5300,1098 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5300,1098 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 570,996
2 | 570, 996 |
3 | 285, 498 |
95, 166 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 95 x 166 = 94620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/94620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5300/570,1098/996 is 2/94620
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 570,996 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(570,996) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(570,996) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(570,996) = ( 570 × 996 ) / 6
LCM(570,996) = 567720 / 6
LCM(570,996) = 94620
