Now, list down the factors of 534
:1,2,3,6,89,178,267,534
Now, list down the factors of 217
:1,7,31,217
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 534,217 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 534,217 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,479
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 34009
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/34009
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 534/71,217/479 is 1/34009
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 71,479 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,479) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,479) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,479) = ( 71 × 479 ) / 1
LCM(71,479) = 34009 / 1
LCM(71,479) = 34009
