Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 565,212 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 565,212 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 596,404
2 | 596, 404 |
2 | 298, 202 |
149, 101 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 149 x 101 = 60196
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/60196
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 565/596,212/404 is 1/60196
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 596,404 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(596,404) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(596,404) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(596,404) = ( 596 × 404 ) / 4
LCM(596,404) = 240784 / 4
LCM(596,404) = 60196
