Now, list down the factors of 567
:1,3,7,9,21,27,63,81,189,567
Now, list down the factors of 185
:1,5,37,185
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 567,185 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 567,185 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 567/46,185/157 is 1/7222
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 46,157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(46,157) = ( 46 × 157 ) / 1
LCM(46,157) = 7222 / 1
LCM(46,157) = 7222
