Lets's calculate GCF of 578,154
2 | 578, 154 |
289, 77 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 578
:1,2,17,34,289,578
Now, list down the factors of 154
:1,2,7,11,14,22,77,154
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 578,154 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 578,154 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 751,966
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 725466
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/725466
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 578/751,154/966 is 2/725466
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 751,966 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(751,966) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(751,966) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(751,966) = ( 751 × 966 ) / 1
LCM(751,966) = 725466 / 1
LCM(751,966) = 725466
