Lets's calculate GCF of 551,418
19 | 551, 418 |
29, 22 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 19 = 19
Now, list down the factors of 551
:1,19,29,551
Now, list down the factors of 418
:1,2,11,19,22,38,209,418
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 551,418 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 551,418 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,1417
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 58097
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/58097
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 551/41,418/1417 is 19/58097
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 41,1417 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,1417) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,1417) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,1417) = ( 41 × 1417 ) / 1
LCM(41,1417) = 58097 / 1
LCM(41,1417) = 58097
