Lets's calculate GCF of 575,295
5 | 575, 295 |
115, 59 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 575
:1,5,23,25,115,575
Now, list down the factors of 295
:1,5,59,295
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 575,295 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 575,295 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,593
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 139948
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/139948
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 575/236,295/593 is 5/139948
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 236,593 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,593) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,593) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(236,593) = ( 236 × 593 ) / 1
LCM(236,593) = 139948 / 1
LCM(236,593) = 139948
