Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 550,451 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 550,451 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 266,260
2 | 266, 260 |
133, 130 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 133 x 130 = 34580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/34580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 550/266,451/260 is 11/34580
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 266,260 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(266,260) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(266,260) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(266,260) = ( 266 × 260 ) / 2
LCM(266,260) = 69160 / 2
LCM(266,260) = 34580
